How Can Industry and Academia Support Regulatory Collaboration?
Industry and academia are critical stakeholders in the regulatory landscape. They contribute by conducting research that informs regulatory decisions and by participating in standard-setting activities. Collaborative research initiatives, such as public-private partnerships, can accelerate the development of new testing methods and safety assessments. Furthermore, companies can engage in pre-competitive collaborations where they share data on the safety and efficacy of nanomaterials, thereby benefiting the entire field.
