[06 Jul 2009] >> As one of the key technologies of the 21st century, nanotechnology will significantly shape our economy, our society and indeed our lives. Already today it finds uses in many areas, from IT and electronics via materials with "tailor-made" properties to medical applications in the fields of diagnostics and therapy. But the bright future for products and processes improved and enhanced by nanotechnology is clouded by questions of safety and security. How do nanoparticles behave in the human body? How do they react with our environment?
>> In order to discuss these questions, and also future (more or less) desirable developments related to the "nano" theme, among as wide an audience as possible, Empa decided three years ago to establish a platform for dialog – the NanoConvention.
>> The aim is to encourage research and development activities in this promising field, with the object of paving the way for the development of safe and sustainable nanotechnology.
