The next International Symposium on Biological and Environmental Reference Materials (BERM) will take place in Berlin on 24th to 26th September 2018 where National Metrology Institutes (NMIs), reference material (RM) producers, government officials, analytical scientists, and accreditation bodies will present and discuss of the most important tools in assuring quality and international comparability of measurement results, the RM. It is a unique event to interact with international key players and institutions who are involved in RM development, production, distribution, and use. Abstract submissions for oral and poster contributions are open now – until 15th June 2018. Abstracts are requested to berm-15@bam.de.
