Event: How Deep Will Nanotechnology’s Impact Be?

How Deep Will Nanotechnology’s Impact Be?
Residence Palace, 155 Rue De La Loi
Brussels, Belgium

Over the past 3 years, the DEEPEN project has explored the ethical challenges posed by emerging nanotechnologies.  What is unusual is that this has happened in real word circumstances – involving members of the public, nanoscience and industry across the EU to levels not previously attempted, and moving beyond a sole focus on risk.  As a result DEEPEN has revealed the widest ever range of implications and challenges for society, government, and science.

We would now like you to discover and debate these issues with us and other key stakeholders at the launch of the DEEPEN project final report.  The launch will be held in Brussels on Monday 28th September, from 10am onwards.

Speakers will include Professor Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent, Professor Alan Irwin, Professor Phil Macnaghten, Professor Alfred Nordmann, and Professor Arie Rip.  RSVP to Richard Hayhurst – [email protected].  Participation is free, but places must be reserved in advance.
