Special Symposium
NSTI is proud to collaborate with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
and Small Times Media in presenting a Special Symposium on
Nanotechnology in Health, Environment & Society, with a focus
towards:
“Exploring opportunities to foster innovation using nanotechnology
materials to develop safe and effective drugs, biologics and devices,
and to develop safe foods, feeds, and cosmetics.”
Consistent with the scientific origins of the conference, this symposium
provides a forum to present the societal, health, and environmental
benefits and safety concerns presented by nanotechnology, and to discuss
regulatory, health and policy issues surrounding the rapid development
and commercialization of these technologies. Presentations will include
technical and commercial breakthroughs along with addressing of societal
issues by industry, government and environmental organizations. Goals
include:
- Establish a strong base of understanding about the best thinking
on the safety, health, environmental and social implications of
nanotech;
- Engage the mainstream science and business community on the full
range of topics associated with these issues;
- Become a key gathering place for the community of people and
institutions interested in the safety, environmental and social
implications of nanotechnology.
- Continue to strengthen FDA's collaborative relationships with
other federal agencies, including the agencies participating in the
National Nanotechnology Initiative such as the NIH, EPA, USDA, as
well as with foreign government regulatory bodies, international
organizations, healthcare professionals, industry, consumers, and
other stakeholders to gather information regarding nanotechnology
materials used or that could be used in FDA-regulated products.
- Consider appropriate vehicles for communicating with the public
about the use of nanotechnology materials in FDA-regulated
products.
Topics & Application Areas
Online abstract submissions are now being accepted. Proposed topics
