The primary goals of the NCI are to: 1. Develop and promote standardized testing methods for assessing the safety of nanomaterials. 2. Facilitate data sharing among members to improve the understanding of nanomaterial behavior and risks. 3. Advocate for science-based regulatory frameworks that ensure the safe use of nanomaterials without stifling innovation. 4. Educate stakeholders about nanosafety and the responsible development of nanotechnology.
