About

The Nanotech in Europe mind map template provides a comprehensive overview of over 60 organizations, initiatives, and regulatory bodies involved in nanotechnology across Europe and beyond. It covers key stakeholders such as the UK's Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the European Commission's Pan-European projects like NanoSafe and GoodNanoGuide, and international bodies including the OECD and ISO. This template serves as a reference for researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals tracking the nanotechnology landscape. It includes specific nodes like 'Institute of Occupational Medicine IoM' under SafeNano and 'Int. Council on Nanotechnology (ICON) @ Rice Uni' under Alliance for NanoHealth. The map is organized by country and institution, making it easy to navigate the complex network of actors in nanotech governance and research.
