Improvements to the SI are helping to evolve the science of accuracy and measurement. Democratization of the SI creates a traceability calibration chain accessible to anyone, anywhere. Digitization of ...

We thank Amit Kalra and colleagues for engaging with the SCIENCE study1 and welcome the opportunity to respond. We agree that an elbow-specific patient-reported outcome measure for children with ...

I was watching Ben Krasnow making iron nitride permanent magnets and was struck by the fact that about half of the video was about making a magnetometer – a device for measuring and characterizing the ...

The most precise measurement yet of how fast the Universe is expanding shows we have a real and serious problem on our hands.

The mission of the Materials Measurement Science Division (MMSD) is to ensure and promote excellence in measurement science. MMSD conducts mission-based fundamental research, standards production, and ...
