AMUM2004 has been a major success and we certainly hope to run it
again in the future (probably in 2 to 3 years time). I was delighted at the
high standard of the presentations and of the delegates in the audience, which
clearly show the need for such a conference. Verbal feedback about the event
was almost uniformly good and this was borne out by the returned
questionnaires, with most categories being scored excellent or good.
There were a total of 88 attendees and one no-show. Of these 39
were from the UK, 22 from the rest of Europe, and 28 from outside Europe. 31 of
the delegates were from industry, 22 were university-based, 19 from hospitals,
10 from other National Metrology Institutes and regulatory bodies, and 7 from
NPL.
My thanks to everyone who attended or otherwise contributed to the
success of AMUM2004.
