The Universities Bordeaux I, Bordeaux Segalen and Bordeaux IV Montesquieu have merged to form the University of Bordeaux (UNIVERSITE DE BORDEAUX) as of the 1st January 2014. The new institution gathers more than 45,000 students and 6000 academic and administrative staff.
The synthesis of the nanomaterials is now nearing completion, with the last of them expected by February. The partners involved in this synthesis have now begun shipping the materials out to the laboratories that will characterise them. These laboratories will be applying and testing dispersion protocols as well as developing standard operation procedures (SOPs) such

On May 15th the ambitious NANOSOLUTIONS Project kicked off at a lively and productive meeting at the Grand Marina Congress Centre, Helsinki, Finland. Kai Savolainen and Harri Alenius of FIOH, the coordinating institute of the 35-partner FP7 project, led the meeting. During the two-day session, details on the Description of Work were formalised by working
The European Commission has labeled the NANODEVICE project, co-ordinated by the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health (FIOH), a success story. The project produced affordable measuring devices for determining the concentrations of nanoparticles in the air. The new NANOSOLUTIONS project is another potential success story, with its aim to create a completely new way of evaluating
