DaNa2.0 becomes DaNa4.0

After a successful closing of the DaNa2.0 project in December 2019 DaNa4.0 will start on 01.03.2020:

Data on new, innovative and safe application related materials

DaNa4.0 – Data on new, innovative and safe application related materials is a science communication project dealing with the safety of novel materials. The project deals with questions whether certain materials could be harmful to humans and/or the environment or whether and how humans and the environment could come into contact with these materials. Complex, toxicological questions from current materials research will be presented in a way that is generally understandable to non-scientists (interested consumers, journalists, politicians, NGOs etc.). These topics are communicated via the website www.nanoobjects.info, brochures and information flyers in an interdisciplinary approach with scientists from human toxicology, ecotoxicology, biology, physics and chemistry.

The project consortium consists of the partners: Dechema (coordinator), KIT, UFZ, NanoCASE

The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is funding DaNa4.0 for three years as part of the funding initiative “NanoCare4.0 – Reliable material innovations”.
