NanoHarmony held a workshop following the journey of a Guidance Document (GD) or Test Guideline (TG) through the OECD process from the standard project submission form (SPSF), through to its adoption and use. At each stage of the process the ‘audience’ changes and therefore so does the information requirements needed to be able to address […]

The NanoHarmony project aims to map the barriers and challenges in terms of translating excellent science into useful regulatory tools. The pathway from scientific discovery, through the formal process of developing test guidance and then on to its use in regulatory compliance can involve many different steps and many people face significant barriers. This can […]
Over 280 registrations were received for NanoHarmony’s webinar ‘Identification and solving barriers for translating science to regulation’ held on March 17th. This webinar focused on helping in identifying the gaps and obstacles faced by stakeholders in developing new test methods and having them introduced as new test guidelines and guidance documents and cover the full […]
NanoHarmony held a webinar on Test Guidelines and Guidance Document Development on December 16th. The webinar focused on addressing some of the questions and issues raised during the previous NanoHarmony workshop and additional issues that participants may raised before the meeting.

The closing plenary brought together a further 150 delegates to hear initial outcomes and share discussion, ready […]
Over 800 registrations were received for the webinar ”The pathway to Test Guidelines: from science to standards for nanomaterials’ hosted by the EC-funded projects NanoHarmony and NANOMET. The two projects, launched earlier in 2020, reflect contributions of the European Commission to support development of Test Guidelines (TG) and Guidance Documents (GD) for nanomaterials, through OECD pathways. NanoHarmony […]
NanoHarmony hosted its first public webinar on July 7 to introduce its mission, activities and opportunities for stakeholders to get involved. The webinar featured project coordinator Thomas Kuhlbush (baua), who introduced the project as a whole and Rachel Smith (Public Health England), co-lead of WP1, who presented the scientific base supporting Test Guideline and Guidance […]

NanoHarmony project kicks off
April 24, 2020 The NanoHarmony project, funded through Horizon 2020, has the mission to support the development of Test Guidelines (TG) and Guidance Documents (GD) for eight substances where nanomaterial-adapted test methods have been identified as an industrial priority. NanoHarmony will coordinate the collection and use of available data and information to support the finalisation […]
