Nano Experts to Assist with 2013 NNI Strategic Plan

The 2013 NNI Stakeholder Workshop to be held June 11-12 in Washington, D.C., allows experts outside the federal government to share their insights.

  • May 20, 2013

Nanotechnology experts will gather in Washington, D.C., on June 11-12 for workshops and discussions to inform the 2013 strategic plan for the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). Their meeting, the 2013 NNI Stakeholder Workshop, is intended to obtain input from stakeholders on revisions to the NNI strategic plan that will be proposed in advance of the workshop.

The event is limited to 120 people. The agenda has been posted and includes a panel to discuss environmental, health, and safety concerns on both days, with Richard Canady, director of the Center for Risk Science Innovation and Application, ILSI Research Foundation, and Charles Geraci, coordinator of NIOSH's Nanotechnology Research Center, serving as co-chairs.

Product Showcase

  • Safety Knives

    The Safety Knife Company has developed a quality range of safety knives for all industries. Designed so that fingers cannot get to the blades, these knives will safely cut through cardboard, tape, strapping, shrink or plastic wrap or a variety of other packing materials. Because these knives have no exposed blades and only cut cardboard deep, they will not only protect employees against lacerations but they will also save product. The Metal Detectable versions have revolutionary metal detectable polypropylene knife bodies specifically for the food and pharmaceutical industries. This material can be detected and rejected by typical detection machines and is X-ray visible. Read More
