The forums in this series, organized by Messe Düsseldorf and IVAM, the specialist microtechnology association, provide a platform for discussions of high-tech medical technology. Electronics was the dominant theme at this year’s event. The suppliers trade show Compamed will next appear on November 17–19, 2010, in conjunction with the world’s biggest medical trade show, Medica.
