How to regulate nanomaterials, nanotechnologies, and nanoindustries has become and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a major focus of US and European regulatory agencies, legislatures on local and national levels and of NGOs.

This Fall in London, from 10-11 September, US and European regulators and researchers from NGOs such as the Woodrow Wilson Center’s Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies, the London School of Economics, (a tidbit for the trivia buffs: Among the London School of Economics better know alumni, one Michael Philip Jagger, aka Mick Jagger) etc will meet and present a collaborative report and other papers. Attendance at the conference is by invitation only and e-mails should be addressed to nanotech@lse.ac.uk attention Ms. Carmen Gayson. For more information, look here.

The Woodrow Wilson Center’s Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies is also presenting a meeting and webcast in connection with the conference on September 23, 2009. For more information, take a look here.
