The NNI Workshop "Technology Development Pathways: Case Studies from the NNI" is just one week away. 

  
 

The Technology Development Pathways workshop will showcase application areas where nanotechnology has had commercial impact. Keynote presentations will highlight the pathways companies have taken to get from research to commercialization. Afternoon panel discussions will focus on specific steps of the development pathway, such as scale up and quality control/measurement systems. Building on these successes, conversations at the workshop will enable companies to share best practices for overcoming technical challenges during the commercialization of nanotechnologies.

When: Wednesday, November 1, 2017

Where: 470 L’Enfant Plaza SW, Suite 8001, Washington, D.C. 20024

Agenda: The full agenda can be found on Nano.gov.

Registration: This workshop is free and open to the public; limited space is still available. Click here to register now.

Addition of titanium dioxide (TiO2) (nano)particles into photocatalytic paints represents a promising alternative aiming to mineralize gaseous pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into innocuous species (H2O and CO2). Despite important industrial and economic benefits, some concerns were raised regarding the risks associated with nano-objects and their human and environmental impacts.

Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are widely used as biocides, leading to contamination of the environment and possible adverse effects on humans. Recent studies revealed that the cellular response to acute exposure to Ag-NPs differs from the response to chronic exposure, although we currently lack systematic studies comparing responses to different dosing regimens.
