About Nanotoxico

Nanosciences and nanotechnologies are highly promising areas for research and industrial innovation. By the principle of precautiousness in front of this technological jump, the risk assessment of engineered nanomaterials has become the focus of increasing attention.

The goal of the Nanotoxico project is to develop in vitro tests for nanoparticles toxicity assement. This project involves several discipines including  physic, chemistry, biology, pharmacy and science communication.

The two symposiums "Toxicity of manufactured nanomaterials"and the Nanofac  were a sucess

This two events, which took place in the university of Namur from thrusday 1st to Friday 2nd october, attracted more than 300 participants from other universities and from 20 compagnies. 

Most of the speaker presentation files from the event are now published, so you can go back to see presentations that you may have missed, or that you’d like to see again.

You will find also the book of abstracts of Nanofac.
