Kosal, the workshop explored differences, similarities, and challenges of trans-Atlantic approaches to regulating and governing nanotechnology, including bionanotechnology and the application of nano-scale materials and techniques to biotechnology.  The workshop brought together scholars from the EU, from Canada, and from the US to consider governance frameworks, forecasting models, ethics, innovation policy, and the role of popular culture as it related to nanotechnology and security. The workshop also considered efforts to learning from the past successes, failures, and challenges to govern technologies, particularly biological\/biotechnology and chemical technologies, for (potential) use in state-based weapons programs.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFor more information, please contact Margaret E.
