How Are Emerging Issues in Nanotechnology Being Addressed?
Emerging issues in nanotechnology, such as the long-term environmental impact of nanoparticles and the potential for bioaccumulation, are being addressed through ongoing research and updates to existing laws. Agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the EPA are funding studies to understand these impacts better. Policymakers are also engaging with scientists and industry stakeholders to develop adaptive regulations.
