*/Nanotechnology Health and Safety Forum
/*

June 8-9, Seattle

This exciting forum provides a rare opportunity to look at the current 
state of the rapidly progressing fields of nanotechnology and 
nanomaterials.  It is often difficult to grasp the current state of the 
science and of the risks and potential of these developments.   Held in 
conjunction with the first U.S. hosted   meeting of the American 
National Standards Institute (ANSI)/International Organization for 
Standardization (ISO) TC 229 committee working on international 
standards for nanotechnology health and safety, this forum brings 
together leading authorities and experts on environmental and 
occupational risk management, regulation, and commercial application of 
nanotechnology.
