National Nanotechnology Initiative Meetings
ACTION: Notice of public meetings.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO), on
behalf of the Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET)
Subcommittee of the Committee on Technology, National Science and
Technology Council (NSTC), will facilitate stakeholder discussions of
targeted nanotechnology topics through workshops and webinars, as well
as community of community of research and network meetings between the
publication date of this Notice and December 31, 2022.
DATES: The NNCO will hold one or more workshops and webinars, as well
as community of research and network meetings between the publication
date of this Notice and December 31, 2022.
ADDRESSES: Event information, including addresses, will be posted on
nano.gov. For information about upcoming workshops and webinars, please
visit https://www.nano.gov/resources/research-community/meetings-and-events and https://www.nano.gov/PublicWebinars. For more information on
the networks and communities of research, please visit https://www.nano.gov/resources/research-community/networks-and-communities.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information regarding this Notice,
please contact Patrice Pages at [email protected] or 202-517-1041.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: These public meetings address the charge in
the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act for NNCO
to provide ``for public input and outreach . . . by the convening of
regular and ongoing public discussions.'' Workshop and webinar topics
may include technical subjects; environmental, health, and safety
issues related to nanomaterials (nanoEHS); business case studies; or
other areas of potential interest to the nanotechnology community.
Areas of focus for the communities of research may include research on
nanoEHS; nanotechnology education; nanomedicine; nanomanufacturing; or
other areas of potential interest to the nanotechnology community. The
communities of research are not intended to provide any government
agency with advice or recommendations; such action is outside of their
purview.
Registration: Due to space limitations, pre-registration for
workshops is required. Workshop registration is on a first-come, first-
served basis. Registration information will be available at https://www.nano.gov/resources/research-community/meetings-and-events.
Registration for the webinars will open approximately two weeks prior
to each event and will be capped at 500 participants or as space
limitations dictate. Individuals planning to attend a webinar can find
registration information at https://www.nano.gov/PublicWebinars.
Written notices of participation for workshops, webinars, networks, or
communities of research should be sent by email to [email protected].
Meeting Accommodations: Individuals requiring special accommodation
to access any of these
[[Page 71681]]
public events should contact [email protected] at least 10 business
days prior to the meeting so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
