The EU project QualityNano offers as part of the „Transnationalen Access (TA)" fully funded access to Top European Nanoscience Facilities for scientists from the European nanosafet- and nanomedicine research communities. Accompanying technical support and training are also offered. Application deadline for the NEW Call for proposals is 14th November 2014.
15 major European research sites offer a cfull range of services and equipment from standard nanomaterials, tuition in best practice, laboratory support and training, and a suite of protocols for all aspects of nanomaterials processing and characterisation in a biological context.
Average visit duration is 4-10 working days per transnational access facility. The project covers all expenses for successful applications, including travel, accommodations and consumables for stays up to a month.
For more information about the program, the various research institutions and the application process please visit www.qualitynano.eu/access.html
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.

In October we would like to present the special issue "Future Nanosafety" published in "Chemical Research in Toxicology".
In 17 articles operation procedures for future test methods, alternatives for animal testing, safe-by-design processes and detection methods of nanoparticles are presented.
