EU 2030 Strategic Plan for sustainable Nanofabrication
The SUSNANOFAB and NanoFabNet Projects have launched a joint White Paper, outlining the recommended ‘EU 2030 Strategic Plan for sustainable Nanofabrication’. The two sister projects, in accordance with the EC requirements, established cross-collaborations and synergies between themselves with the aim of outlining a common and aligned vision for a more
Post-pandemic Professional Networks
By way of a crowning conclusion to its 30-months endeavour of establishing the NanoFabNet Hub – an entirely new professional network for collaborations in the field of sustainability and high-tech innovation, the NanoFabNet team published and outlook on ‘Post-pandemic Professional Networks’. Remembering the original planning of the NanoFabNet at the
EU 2030 Strategic Plan for Nanofabrication
The NanoFabNet published its ultimate roadmap to establish and secure the ongoing advancement and innovation in sustainable micro- and nanofabrication; the newly released report ‘EU 2030 Strategic Plan for Nanofabrication – a NanoFabNet Roadmap‘ highlights the findings of 10 detailed analyses and resulting strategies and action plans, conducted and provided
Implementation Roadmap for Infrastructures, Knowledge & Skills Development in Nanofabrication
‘How can the taxonomy for nanofabrication processes be harmonised across the borders of countries and disciplines, as well as language- and education-barriers?’ … this is the question tackled by the NanoFabNet team in its newly published ‘NanoFabNet Strategy & Implementation Roadmap on Infrastructures, Knowledge & Skills Development‘. Building on the
Regulatory and policy considerations around genome editing in agriculture
In a newly published book on ‘Applications of Genome Modulation and Editing‘ (book series: Methods in Molecular Biology (MIMB, volume 2495), Drs Steffi Friedrichs (AcumenIST SRL), Karinne Ludlow (Monash University) and Peter Kearns (SwiftEST SARL) analyse and discuss 25 countries and regions that have published results or ongoing investigations and
Mapping the scientific Landscapes of Nanofabrication & Sustainability
A new NanoFabNet report delineates the boundaries of the scientific fields of ‘nanofabrication’ and ‘sustainability’ in search of overlaps in both research and innovation (R&I) topics and individual experts that specialise in their pursuit. The NanoFabNet aims to establish an international hub for sustainable nanofabrication, whose structure, business model, detailed
International Cooperation on sustainable Nanofabrication
The newly published NanoFabNet Implementation Roadmap for International Cooperation emphasises the NanoFabNet’s efforts to strengthen the existing linkages between stakeholders in sustainable nanofabrication for the sake of enhancing international cooperation. The Roadmap identifies the dimensions concerning sustainability in nanofabrication (“raising awareness of sustainability”, “compliance with regulation and legislation”, “implementation of
How to reach Sustainability in Nanofabrication
The NanoFabNet, and international hub for sustainable nanofabrication, has published its ‘NanoFabNet Strategy & Implementation Roadmap for Sustainability in Nanofabrication’. Building on the NanoFabNet ‘Report on the Concepts & Disciplines of Sustainability in Nanotechnology & Nanofabrication’ (published in October 2020), in which the NanoFabNet Concept of Sustainable Nanofabrication was introduced,
Validation, Harmonisation & Standardisation Action Plan for sustainable Nanofabrication
The NanoFabNet, an international hub for sustainable, industrial-scale nanofabrication, has launched an Action Plan for the Validation, Harmonisation & Standardisation of sustainable Nanofabrication. The Action Plan was developed as a follow-up to the detailed analysis of the challenges posed by any validation, harmonisation and standardisation efforts in sustainable nanofabrication, as
Implementation Roadmap for EU-Project Collaboration
Seeking to provide help to EU-funded projects dealing with sustainable nanofabrication, the new NanoFabNet Implementation Roadmap for EU-Project Collaboration includes a series of core components and enablers to advance its goal in a meaningful way: Partnerships & Collaborations: these are critical to unlocking the full potential of any EU-funded project.
The Story of Responsible Research & Innovation in 36 Chapters
[…] the ongoing but gradually changing discussions concerning both the virus and the measures to prevent its spread gives me the benefit of hindsight when stress-testing the concepts and practices of responsible research and innovation described in the handbook against how they actually fared in the case of a pandemic.
A new Taxonomy for Nanofabrication
An in-depth mapping report by the NanoFabNet Hub illustrates the urgent need for a new, harmonised taxonomy for nanofabrication: when analysing the structures and naming conventions of 66 cleanroom nanofabrication facilities located in 15 countries in Europe and the United States, advertising more than 3000 pieces of equipment to be
Common Challenges & Opportunities in sustainable Nanofabrication
A new report by the NanoFabNet finds that – even if a lot of work had been done at an international level during the last 30 years in the nanofabrication field – a lot of challenges were still to be met. The authors found that the challenges belonged to two
Challenges & Opportunities in the Validation, Harmonisation & Standardisation of industrial-scale Nanofabrication
The NanoFabNet report on ‘Challenges & Opportunities of Validating, Harmonising & Standardising industrial-scale Nanofabrication’ is a seminal review of both the ongoing effort to support emerging technologies, such as nanofabrication, through harmonisation efforts, and the challenges and opportunities of nanofabrication itself. Based on an in-depth analysis of scientific literature and
International Network Initiative on Safe & Sustainable Nanotechnology
The EU-Asia Dialogue on NanoSafety, which commenced in 2017 as a series of annual conferences organised by members of the EU NanoSafety Cluster and the Asia Nano Forum, published concept paper for the creation and activities of a new International Network Initiative on Safe & Sustainable Nanotechnology (INISS-nano) (http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5004929).
