A Quality Review: The Top 10 Best Papers for Life Science Calibration and Testing Laboratories

by Walter Nowocin

In the past fifteen years, there have been many exceptional technical papers presented at the annual NCSL International Workshop and Symposium and the Measurement Science Conference. At Medtronic, we benefited from many of these papers to improve our calibration program supporting high-volume medical device manufacturing operations using high quality inspection, measuring, and test equipment. However, many life science calibration and testing laboratories may not have benefited from these papers due to high lab management turnover, lack of support in attending industry conferences, or lack of visibility to these valuable presentations and how they can be used to improve laboratory operations.

In this paper, we will review the top ten best papers and how they can be used to improve the quality of calibration laboratory operations. At the end of the paper, we will discuss a bonus resource which along with the technical papers can be considered an essential part of a life science’s knowledge retention toolbox.
