Disclosure can be achieved through various means: 1. Scientific Publications: Peer-reviewed journals are a primary avenue for disclosing research findings. 2. Patents: Filing patents ensures that innovations are legally protected while making detailed technical information publicly accessible. 3. Conferences and Symposia: Presenting at scientific meetings allows for immediate feedback and networking with peers. 4. Regulatory Filings: Submitting necessary documentation to regulatory authorities ensures compliance and public safety. 5. Public Databases: Repositories like the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) provide centralized access to nanotechnology information.
