This workshop brings
together experts from diverse disciplines to
evaluate how the field of risk analysis can address
the considerable uncertainties currently associated
with impacts from nanoscale materials and
nanotechnologies. The rapidly expanding development
and use of nanoscale materials has generated new
challenges for the approaches historically applied
to guide health, safety, and environmental
protection. Unique properties of these materials
could have significant implications for basic
components of the traditional paradigm for informing
risk management decisions: hazard identification,
exposure and dose-response assessments, and risk
characterization.
