Dear Reader,

Welcome to the 12th KCDB Newsletter.

In this issue we highlight some updates related to the CIPM MRA, the JCRB, the contents of the KCDB and some events organized by the BIPM. General information on future meetings is provided from the BIPM main website: calendar of meetings held at the BIPM, and other conferences, workshops and general assemblies. As usual, we begin with a novel success story related to the use of the CIPM MRA.

We wish you a pleasant time surfing our KCDB Newsletter No 12,
The BIPM KCDB Office

To improve future editions of the KCDB Newsletter, please send us feedback to BIPM.KCDB@bipm.org so that we may meet your specific interests and concerns.
