"Metrological traceability in the globalization age" - IMEKO conference at LNE, 6-8 April - March 2011
This three-day conference will focus on the new needs in measurement traceability that are appearing in the age of globalization. Three IMEKO technical committees – TC8 (Traceability in metrology), TC23 (Metrology in food and nutrition) and TC24 (Chemical measurements) – will take stock of improvements made in the reliability, comparability and traceability of measurements in the environmental, health and food sectors, and assess the development of metrological tools such as reference materials, reference methods, calibration and aptitude tests.
LNE will make a key contribution, presenting its work in this field at presentations* or poster** sessions and running a session on metrological traceability of measurements in the health sector.
