 "ASESMA-2010 was not just a two week school. It was the start of an ongoing network for interaction and collaboration. By all accounts, it was a fantastic success. Much of the enthusiasm of the students was due to an innovative program of mentors, motivated young scientists mainly at the post-doctoral level, who worked with the participants one-on-one throughout the school..."
