On 10 September 2009, the European Commission (DG Health and
Consumers) is organising in Brussels a Scientific Hearing on the
risk assessment of nanotechnologies.
The main objectives of this Hearing are to identify:
any possible scientific topics which have not been covered in
the opinions from the relevant EU Risk Assessment Committees and
Bodies;
what are -according to current scientific knowledge- the main
potential risks that could emerge from the use of nanomaterials in
the future; and
provision of relevant background information and comments on
those issues.
