Our President's Message

 

Dear Colleagues,

It is with the greatest pleasure that I welcome you to the NEW homepage of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society.

The IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society, “our” Society, is a worldwide group of scientists, academicians, industry professionals and students who share the vision of being part of “the premier international professional Society in the Instrumentation and Measurement (I&M) fields”. 

This year starts with a great hope for all of us to have our lives back and is also carrying memories and experiences that we never have thought to accumulate. However, as often happens in the greatest crises, it has been also the opportunity for big changes, an “accelerator”. It forced us to think out of the box and gave us the trigger to make decisions and moves that were already growing and waiting to mature. 

The IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society has faced this year by reacting to the emergency first by switching our conferences to remote mode. The results have been highly comforting with a large number of high-quality papers and many attendees who spent their time attending paper presentations. It was challenging, but we learned quickly and now are ready to start this new year with many renewed conferences run in a remote manner. We are confident that they will be highly appreciated and populated by our members and authors. 

But, apart from conferences, we strived to keep our traditional high standard of services for our members and therefore we started our I&M Society Virtual Distinguished Lecturer Webinar program that has received lots of attention and positive feedback.

All of our services and the full body of relevant information for our members need a modern, agile and efficient platform. This new Society website is the result of this last year of work made for designing, developing, testing and populating. This webpage is your entry point to our Society, to all of our services; to general information on the Society; to our award opportunities, to our conferences and publications; to our technical activities; and, finally, to curiosities about our members and our Officers.
