The European Magnetic Sensors and Actuators Conference (EMSA) is already a well known European forum that serves to assess the status, recent progress, and development in the field of magnetic sensor technology and magnetic actuators. It was first held in 1996 in Iasi-Romania and since then has continued every two years in Sheffield-UK, Dresden-Germany, Athens-Greece, Cardiff-UK and Bilbao-Spain.
The aim of the conference is to give an overview of research in magnetic sensors and actuators, to recognise their relevance in modern industry and to identify future issues. EMSA 2008 will provide an excellent opportunity to bring together scientists and engineers from universities, research institutes and industry to present and discuss their most recent results covering both fundamental and applied aspects of magnetic sensors and actuators.
