ASL: How does it work?

The Advanced Studies Laboratories • ASL is a partnered strategic alliance. • ASL is a consortium of Affiliates. • UCSC-associated Affiliates • NASA-associated Affiliates • Third-party Affiliates: Academic, Non-profit or Commercial • Non-resident Affiliates (international) ASL finds and engages practical solutions that enable two science and engineering powerhouses, NASA Ames and UCSC, to co operate a research facility and welcome students, third-party partners, and the international community.
