About the Nanotechnology Consumer Products Inventory
The inventory is a resource for consumers, citizens, policymakers, and others who are interested in learning about how nanotechnology is entering the marketplace. It is meant to be international and expanding. The goal is to create a 'living' inventory for the exchange of accurate information on nano enabled consumer products. Improved information sharing will allow citizens, manufacturers, scientists, policymakers, and others to better understand how nanotechnology is being used in the consumer marketplace. To participate you can register for an account here or submit new and updated information to nano@wilsoncenter.org.
