Woolmer Lecture

The Woolmer lecture is the flagship lecture of the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine. It takes place annually during the Institute's Medical Physics and Engineering Conference.

Dedication

The lecture is dedicated to Professor Ronald Woolmer who was the first Director of the Research Department of Anaesthetics at the Royal College of Surgeons. Woolmer convened a meeting at the Royal College of Surgeons, London, to discuss the evolving field of engineering applied to medicine. It was agreed that the group should hold regular meetings and as a result the Biological Engineering Society (BES) was formed with Ronald Woolmer as the first President. Woolmer died two years after the formation of the BES and it was agreed that a memorial lecture would be sponsored in recognition of his achievements.

gollark: I mean, I trust computers to do exactly as they're told, but software stacks are horrifically complex and insecure.
gollark: As I've said a bit before, I *do not trust computers enough* to connect one to my brain.
gollark: You might as well just directly plug the camera into the RPi and save a lot of hassle.
