Take part in EU consultation on metrology research
The European Commission has launched a public consultation on the joint programming of metrology research. The survey is about EURAMET's European Metrology Research Programme (EMRP) and the European Metrology Programme for Innovation and Research (EMPIR).
In the survey participants can provide their view on the current status of the European metrology research system and the challenges it is facing. The aim of the consultation is to gather input to analyse the experience gained during the preparation and implementation of EMRP and EMPIR, assess how the programmes can best contribute to policy developments and to identify critical issues and to propose adjustments if necessary.
The EURAMET Chairpersons would like to encourage the EURAMET and broader metrology communities and their stakeholders to take part in the public consultation.
The survey consists of five sections including relevance of metrology research, objectives of EMRP and EMPIR and the possibility of a future research programme. It should take no longer than 15 minutes to complete.
The public consultation is open until Friday 7 October 2016.
