Important Considerations

The theme "Limits and Interfaces in Science" was carefully chosen to arouse interest from different scientific research areas and to offer researchers the opportunity to share their questions with people from other science fields, with other ways of reasoning.
More than a hundred participants ( 119 ) presented their researches at this meeting. It is a great number and I was very proud about this manifestation of interest.
I am also very pleased to declare that all the congressists were contacted exclusively through the Internet. I didn’t write a single letter by regular mail, all our correspondence was by electronic mail.   This was really fantastic! All these people are already inter connected.
Some fifteen years ago, while I was working in Germany with the support of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, I had my first contact with this ecologic responsibility we hear so often nowadays. The experience from that time inspired me to come up with the ecologic badge we used in this meeting. A sample piece of paper mix with seeds that with a good care could become a tree. It was the gift our Humboldt Kolleg gave to the congressist to bring them some memories of this meeting as well as improve life on our planet.
