This event brought together the U.S.-EU Communities of Research (CORs), which are a platform for scientists address environmental, health, and safety questions about nanomaterials by developing a shared repertoire of protocols and methods to overcome research gaps and barriers. The Communities were established in 2012, and this workshop was intended to further develop and support the CORs’ activities.

Stakeholder Perspectives on the Perception, Assessment, and Management of the Potential Risks of Nanotechnology (R3 Workshop)

2013 NNI Strategic Planning Stakeholder Workshop

The purpose of this second Joint Workshop between the European Union and the United States was to further promote and deepen the EU-U.S. collaboration on nanosafety research. The aim was also to develop the Communities of Research (CoR) collaboration and to bring them to a new level of activity.

The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO) will hold a webinar on September 20 to provide an open forum to answer questions and hear suggestions related to the National Nanotechnology Initiative’s (NNI) public website, Nano.gov. Serving as the primary mechanism for public engagement, Nano.gov was redesigned in April 2011

This report on Regional, State, and Local (RSL) Initiatives in Nanotechnology is the result of a topical workshop convened 1–2 May 2012 in Portland, Oregon, sponsored by the Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET) Subcommittee of the National Science and Technology Council, and by the Oregon Nanoscience and Microtechnologies Institute.

Federal Agencies participating in the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) are hosting a webinar to announce the release of the 2011 NNI Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Research Strategy and to the discuss the development of this document and its key focus areas.

The US and EU jointly held a workshop to engage in an active discussion about environmental, health, and safety questions for nano-enabled products, encourage joint programs of work that would leverage resources, and establish communities of practice, including identification of key points of contact /interest groups/themes between key US and EU researchers & key US and EU funding sources.
