My participation in the GRC had great impacts in identifying and stimulating new research areas and establishing new links with academic and industrial researchers in polymer science and technology. The friendly atmosphere of the GRC undoubtedly aided in the achievement of important goals.

I remember the 1998 Sensory Transduction in Microorganisms conference, when the non-U.S. were nearly all lost at sea while whale-watching... a plot for U.S. domination of the field?

For me, science took on a whole new dimension at my first GRC, which was on Electron Donor Acceptor Interactions. I felt I was finally a full-fledged member of the scientific community. It really was both a rite of passage and an eye-opener to the power of scientific thought and the scientific community.
