Abstract
The successful completion of a Workshop under the title ‘Technology and techniques’ bears evidence to the rapid development of research into the entire subject of the female climacteric, and the escalating complexity of some of the technologies being introduced to evaluate the subject. Indeed, the history of the International Menopause Congresses has reflected this development with the first Congress in 1976 being one of definition, the second Congress in 1978 reflecting the intense interest in estrogen-related uterine cancer problems, and the third meeting in 1980 being one of consolidation.
