EUON asks for input on future nanostudies | NIA News

The European Observatory on Nanomaterials (EUON) has published an open invite for interested parties to suggest topics for upcoming studies in the area of nanomaterials that can be as a desk top study during a 3-9 month time period. The suggestions should be submitted before 15 Jaunary 2020. 

EUON states: 

The EUON is looking for topic suggestions that could be addressed in its upcoming studies. Up to 3 studies are conducted annually to address knowledge gaps on nanomaterials that are of interest to the general public and the research community. The EUON is looking for studies that address:
questions relating to the health and safety of nanomaterials, including hazard and risk assessment, exposure to nanomaterials or worker safety and protection; specific issues surrounding the uses of nanomaterials; or
information about markets for nanomaterials, focusing on EU markets.The scope of the study can be on nanomaterials in general, a specific nanomaterial, or a defined group of nanomaterials and it should be possible to execute within 3 to 9 months. The studies should be based on desk research and surveys and should not require laboratory research. NIA will follow up EUON request specifically within its Members Network.
