Extract

Since 1982, the Medical Research Council of the Academy of Finland, together with other interested parties, has tried to develop systematically the evaluation research of medical technology. The broadly based working group set up by the Council is preparing a program dealing with this issue to promote research work and the training of researchers. The arrangement of consensus development conferences, held on various topics in many countries, is another means of reaching these goals. In Finland, the arrangement of such conferences has been the responsibility of the Medical Research Council.
