Participant Testimonials
Wonderful location, great services, extremely well balanced scientific program. It was great to meet so many active researchers in the field in a very inspiring environment.
The workshop was indeed excellent and I found BIRS to be a perfect place for this activity! (I was especially impressed by how flaw-less the audio-visual installation worked and how simple it is to handle, I wish we had the same one in our Institute!)
The BIRS workshop was a great experience. It provided an intimate setting and a great atmosphere for people to get to know one another and discuss their research in depth. I was able to get to know new people from fields I am not familiar with and learned a great deal from them. I also had opportunities to meet a few people who have been working on similar topics as myself. The exchanges with them were also very beneficial and generated quite a few new ideas.

The excellent facilities at BIRS, the inspiring surroundings and the capable organization of this workshop have yet again made my visit to Banff a scientifically productive time filled with enriching presentations by and discussion with other participants.
