Scientists from across Europe will be meeting to discuss the safety of nanomaterials on the 7-9th February 2017 in Malaga, Spain. The event, called “New tools and approaches for nanomaterial safety assessment”, is jointly organised by five major EC-funded projects NANOSOLUTIONS, SUN, NanoMILE, GUIDEnano, and eNanoMapper. Experts from these research projects will present the main results of their work and discuss the impact this has had on the safety of nanomaterials.
