Addressing definitional ambiguity requires a multi-faceted approach:
Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Encouraging collaboration between scientists, engineers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders can help develop more comprehensive and inclusive definitions. Standardization Efforts: International standardization bodies like ISO and regulatory agencies should continue to refine and harmonize definitions and guidelines. Public Engagement: Engaging with the public and educational initiatives can improve understanding and acceptance of nanotechnology. Dynamic Definitions: Recognizing that nanotechnology is an evolving field, definitions should be flexible and adaptable to accommodate new discoveries and applications.
