Clearing the US and EU Regulatory Path to Product Approval – “What Similarities and Differences Exist and How Can Companies Manage the Hurdles?”

Learn how to navigate through the complexities and policy changes that biotech and nanotech products face today. Expert advice and case studies will provide valuable lessons on how policy and regulation is influencing technology in the US and EU and what companies can do to save time and cost throughout the process. Do regulatory agencies have the legal authority to make judgments on nanomaterials? Are they ready for this responsibility?

EVENT DATE: 14 - 17 January, 2009

Center for Nanosciences and Nanotechnology at Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México (UNAM) Ensenada

Thursday, March 13, 2008 @ Fish & Richardson Law Offices 12390 El Camino Real San Diego, CA, 92130 from 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm

The debut of UNAM Ensenada’s Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology marks the trend of newly inaugurated departments focused on nanotechnology in universities around the world. UNAM is already recognized as the university with the highest concentration of researchers working on nanotechnology and some of the most ambitious projects. At UNAM Ensenada this announcement ties into an overall vision for the region that includes vinculation, innovation and economic sustainability through industrial applications of breakthrough technology.

Distinguished Speakers:

Dr. Carlos Aramburo de la Hoz
National Scientific Coordinator
UNAM, Mexico City, Mexico

Dr. Sergio Fuentes
Director UNAM Ensenada

Dr. Nina Bogdanchikova
Principal Investigator, UNAM Ensenada

On the 9th of January, 2008 NanoVision Center’s opening took place at Queen Mary of London University and this event has been widely covered by British and international mass media (BBC, Daily Mirror, British Satellite News etc.).
The ceremony was opened by Professor Nigel Brown, the head of university, who has solemnly cut the nanoribbon which was specially made with Quanta 3D device (FEI Company). In his report the professor expressed appreciation to sponsors (NT-MDT, Atocube, FEI, Jeol) and especially noted unique opportunities of scanning probe microscopy (SPM).

There is an avalanche-like increase of reports, where molecules of
nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) appear as an object of nanotechnology
research and/or as material for nano-sized devices. In many cases
scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is the most powerful and
informative research tool. Examinations as well as precise
manipulations can be performed this way. What is important when
SPM is applied to molecular level experiments? Three facets are
illustrated further.

NANOTEC2008 will show how nanotechnology can lead to the development of a new generation of products, devices and processes which can revolutionise sectors of great relevance. The agenda will mirror the objectives of the Strategic Programme launched by the Italian Government, Industry 2015, which focus also on themes that are at the front line at world level:

• Energy efficiency;
• Sustainable mobility;
• New technologies for life sciences;
• New technologies for Made in Italy;
• Innovative technologies to preserve the cultural heritage.
