Abstract
Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas resulted form the combination of research in laser cooling and trapping, the study of spin polarized hydrogen, and the investigation of atomic collisions at very low temperatures. After discussing how these advances led to BEC, we will cover recent measurements on BEC and experimental progress.Proceedings Title
