About this Event

There are many aspects of measurement in healthcare – measurements on patients, measurements on medical devices and measurements in the production of these devices.

The West Yorkshire region and the companies, universities and other research organisations within it are proud to be recognised as being at the cutting edge of research and product development in these areas.

With these advances, the measurements needed and the methods for taking them are evolving fast. One constant is the requirement for this data to be high quality, repeatable and accurate.

This event will bring together speakers from NPL and local leading academic institutions to speak about some of the research ongoing in this area and give you a chance to feedback on measurement challenges that will help shape the future of metrology.

A full agenda will be available shortly, but it promises to be an interesting event – please save the date!

Please note that there is NO parking at the venue. There are several car parks within a 5-minute-walk from the centre. We recommend the NCP Colne Road West that charges 95p per hour. Find out more .

There are two spaces at the front of the building and one at the rear for blue badges, which are unreserved and available on a first-come-first-served basis.
