Project description
Effectively assessing the risks of nanomaterials
The health, safety and environmental management of nanomaterials (NMs) is increasingly important. Currently, there is no complete understanding of NMs' impacts, and emerging NMs require new risk management approaches. The EU-funded NanoSolveIT project will introduce a ground-breaking in silico Integrated Approach to Testing and Assessment (IATA) for NMs, implemented as a decision support system presented via stand-alone open software and a cloud platform. The project will develop a knowledge-based infrastructure for data hosting, sharing and exploitation via predictive modelling, to support NM grouping and risk assessment using nanodescriptors that are predictively linked to NM functionality, exposure and hazard. Project outcomes will benefit stakeholders at each stage of the NM value chain.
