Personnel associated with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) facilities and other institutions engaged in nanoscale science met
at a 2 1/2-day training seminar on management of environmental, worker safety, and worker health (ES&H) concerns in research
and development (R&D) environments. The symposium featured talks by nationally and internationally recognized experts on nanoscale
material risks and best practices.
