Season’s Greetings! And best wishes for the New Year from PRODINTEC!!!

Dear colleagues,

It is our pleasure to announce that the third newsletter of NANO2ALL project is already available in this link.

In this newsletter, you can know more about the citizen dialogues that took place during the last months in France, Israel, Italy, Poland, Spain and Sweden and the input gathered from citizens about their values, desires, and concerns regarding nanotechnology.

Nanomaterials are very diverse groups of materials with greatly varying properties. Nowadays, an increasing number of them are entering the market in every day products spanning from healthcare and leisure to electronics, cosmetics and foodstuff. However, the novelty and variety in properties and forms of nanomaterials makes the elaboration of a well-founded and robust legislative framework to ensure safe development of nano-enabled products particularly challenging.

At the heart of the challenge lies the difficulty in the reliable and reproducible characterisation of nanomaterials given their extreme diversity and dynamic nature, particularly in complex conditions, such as within different biological, environmental and technological compartments.
