Testimonials

Outstanding speakers and selection of topics. Science was top notch; many speakers presented unpublished data. This was probably the best meeting I attended this year. The scientific organizers did an outstanding job!

Amazing community with high quality science. The cruise was amazing and really useful to meet people.

I was able to meet the experts in my field that I had never met before. The talks were really great

The New Investigator session was great and gave me an opportunity to meet new people and talk with people I don’t see very often. It was excellent. The dinner cruise was also a great opportunity to talk with people and was well-done, though a bit crowded!
