Description
The National Nanotechnology Initiative and the genesis of the environmental, health, and safety strategy -- Elements of an effective nanotechnology risk-research strategy -- Evaluation of the federal strategy -- Review of high-priority research topics, research needs, and gap analysis -- Conclusions and recommendations -- Biographic information on the committee for review of the federal strategy to address environmental, health, and safety research needs for engineered nanoscale materials) -- Statement of task -- Workshop agendas of the National Research Council Committee for Review of the Federal Strategy to Address Environmental, Health, and Safety Research Needs for Engineered Nanoscale Materials.
Intends to find serious weaknesses in the government's plan for research on the potential health and environmental risks posed by nanomaterials, which are used in consumer goods and industry. This book recommends a robust national strategic plan for addressing nanotechnology-related EHS risks, which need to focus on promoting research.
