Sensor100

January 2017

From the Editor

By the

time you read this, the holiday season will be a distant

memory, and NewYear resolutions, if you made any, will certainly

have been broken. And so we move boldly into the NewYear, which

is now one twelth gone already.

Sensor100

has ambitious plans for 2017. We will continue, and ex-

pand our conference series which uniquely focuses on applications

- environment, food & ag, healthcare and medicine. We will continue

to explore the issue of why there is so much sensor research, but

why so little of it reaches the market place.

Last year, we began to look at sensors for cancer diagnosis, which

has the potential to become the biggest commercial application

- think of a screening test which everyone used once a year. We will

continue to press on with this, despite apparent scepticism from the

established cancer industry.

You may notice that my picture has changed to reflect my 2016

beard. If there are not too many objections, I’ll keep it and get a

better photo.

Kind regards

Michael
