What the fellow says:

"Thanks to this fellowship, I have been able to analyse the molecular quality of water using advanced molecular biology technology and to obtain my Ph.D. in science. I have explained my studies in DNA microarrays in theoretical and practical sessions with professors and students of the University of El Salvador."
