Not only did the conference provide ample opportunity for growth (to all attendees, and particularly students), but (to a greater degree) it was a reflection that the effort by the South African government of trying to establish a cohort of competent scientists who truly represent the diversity and aspirations of the wider community is indeed. And more importantly, it was a perfect demonstration of what can be achieved when we all decide to pull our resources together in pursuit of a common goal and progressive vision.
