The Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU), coordinator of RiskGONE, created a short video showing the main steps in conducting a comet assay, in order to assess the toxicity of nanomaterials. One of the aims of the RiskGONE project is the verification, optimisation and development of methods for the characterization and human and eco-toxicological hazard…
On 5th June, RiskGONE held its second webinar, attended by more than 40 participants. This time project partners focused the discussion on how to use Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs), a risk-assessment method, to analyse the possible hazards nanomaterials can pose to human health. Experts from KU Leuven (Belgium), the Institute for Medical Research and Occupational Health…
Nanotechnologies have useful applications, but do present risks, such as toxicity or flammability under some conditions. The RiskGONE project is researching on how to assess hazards using Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs), a risk-assessment method used to analyse how biological events may lead to adverse effects. Using AOPs is common for assessing hazards posed by chemicals,…
Our first webinar brought together the expertise of leading RiskGONE project partners in order to explain how we go about our mission to improve risk governance of engineered nanomaterials and how interested stakeholders can get involved. We have recorded the webinar for you so that you can get back to it anytime. Simply click on…
Be part of our 1st webinar and find out more about RiskGONE!Partners leading on different activities of RiskGONE will talk about the project itself, its visions and ambitions as well as about the possibilities for YOU to interact with us and actively influence the future governance of nanomaterials in the EU and worldwide!
