The aims of this educational activity are to inform participants of the global and European metrology infrastructures currently in place to support the clinical, biotechnology and food sectors. It will describe the fundamentals of the primary methods of analysis used to assure the metrological traceability of pure primary calibrators and matrix reference materials and in the development of reference measurement procedures.

The curriculum is set to inform participants of the basic principles of developing reference measurement procedures, providing measurement results with direct traceability to the SI, and how these are applied to enabling comparable measurement results for a range of current biological and biochemical measurement challenges.

This will provide the perfect environment for NMIs/DIs who wish to establish or increase their activities in the biochemistry/biology sector to quickly get up to speed with current approaches and establish links to current NMI/DI work programmes.
