OECD Workshop Risk Assessment of Manufactured Nanomaterials in a Regulatory Context
du 16-sept.-2009 au 18-sept.-2009
This workshop was held on 16-18 September 2009 in Washington D.C., United States. This Workshop was co-hosted with the Business and Industry Advisory Committee to OECD (BIAC) and the Society for Risk Analysis (SRA). The objectives were: i) to collect expert input to the critical issues specific for the risk assessments of nanomaterials; ii) to identify possible approaches for risk assessment based on the current state of knowledge; and iii) to identify issues which may be addressed through OECD’s testing programme. The workshop report will be available towards the end of the year.
