ELSI & EHS at ND: Integrating Perspectives for Responsible Nanodevelopment

This project at the University of Notre Dame focuses on the integration of Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) and Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) considerations in nanotechnology. Key initiatives include a symposium on legal and ethical issues involving industry and government participants, a collaborative community to discuss ELSI and EHS research, and the establishment of the NanoMonitor project. This multi-faceted approach, involving international partnerships, aims to address pressing issues in nanotechnology responsibly and sustainably.
