The Sustainable Nanotechnology Conference 2015 is a forum for nanotechnology researchers, industry, and regulators to present and discuss research findings on the interface between nanotechnology and sustainability. It is being jointly organized by the US Sustainable Nanotechnology Organization (SNO), and two large EU research projects: SUN and GUIDEnano. Perspectives on the implications and applications of nanotechnology will be provided by leading experts in EU and USA.
