What exactly are nanoparticles? What is meant by “exposure”? When do toxicologists speak of a risk? This and many more questions regarding research on safety aspects of nanomaterials are answered here: www.nanoobjects.info
Beginning of November 2016, the eighth edition of the Call for proposal for ERA-Nets EuroNanoMed III was published. Funded are transnational collaborative projects in the field of nanomedicine, in which at least three and at most seven partners from at least three partner countries are actively involved. The subject areas of the call include regenerative medicine, diagnostics and targeted delivery systems. Deadline for applications is 16 January 2017.
EuroNanoMed (ENM) is an ERA-NET on Nanomedicine established since 2008 as a platform for funding agencies and ministries to coordinate research programmes with the goal of creating and funding collaborative research projects that can convert research in nanotechnology into practical gains in medicine. Through 7 successful Joint Transnational Calls launched from 2009 to 2016, EuroNanoMed has allocated about 55 Million euros to fund 60 transnational projects in nanomedicine.
Under the umbrella of EuroNanoMed III, the 8th Joint Transnational Call is now opened for funding multilateral innovative research projects on nanomedicine together with the European Commission under the ERA-NET Cofund mechanism:
Information on the sponsorship programmes of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research on nanotechnologies for humans and the environment.
A database with important and generally understandable aspects on health and environment of applied nanomaterials as well as facts on the safety of manufactured nanomaterials.
The chapters on release, exposure, uptake and behavior of nanomaterials in the human body and in the environment as well as the risk assessment will give you a first overview.
