Statement of Task - Research Progress on Environmental Health and Safety Aspects of Engineered Nanomaterials - page 87

The second report will address the following issues:
 What research progress has been made in understanding the health, environmental, and safety
aspects of nanotechnology? How does the research progress affect relevance of the initial set of
research priorities?
 How have market and regulatory conditions changed and how does this affect the research
priorities?
 Are the criteria for evaluating the research progress on the health, environmental, and safety
aspects of nanotechnology appropriate?
 Considering the criteria developed, to what extent have short-term and long-term research
priorities been initiated and implemented?
