Regarding results of the study for 2000

I would like to summarize the results of the program in the year 2000 here.
The Magnetic Science Foundation has continued to produce interesting and
potentially valuable results as a result of our efforts.
Following the discovery of the nature of magnetism have come many
improvements in magnetic science and technology, and new products which have
helped to improve the lives of many in our rapidly aging society.
The Magnetic Health Science Foundation was established for the explicit purpose
of supporting research and promoting further study in magnetism.
This presentation is the product of that work. We are pleased to present these
findings.
