TC-25: The Latest Activities of Technical Committee on Biological and Medical Measurements

The Technical Committee on Biological and Medical Measurements (TC-25) aims at establishing, developing, promoting and supporting the cooperation among researchers in the different fields of biological and medical measurements. Sensors for the measurement of clinical and/or biological parameters, instrument and procedure characterization, instrument interoperability and interconnection, and data processing are some of the topics of interest to the TC-25. To those aims, the technical committee designs and realizes joint activities, like study groups aimed at standardization, such as the Subcommittee on Blood Pressure Measurement (SCOBPM), conferences or special sessions, such as the IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications, and several special sessions during the annual IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Technical Conferences. The TC-25 is also continuously engaged to maintain liaisons with other committees, groups, societies and organizations working on topics related to the TC's scope.
