The BIRS meeting had an important impact for me due to its relative size which allowed to follow in details all the recent progresses and to interact efficiently with most participants. The location is also very nice. This opportunuity has allowed me to set-up new perspectives in this field and to plan many future visit exchanges between my institute and institutes of other participants.

The conference was fantastic. It definitely stimulated my thinking and gave me several new ideas for my research. Fostering contact with others in my area of research and potential collaborators was especially valuable -- not to mention that Oaxaca is an amazing city!
