While everyone agrees on its incredible properties and the possibilities it brings to industry in particular, more and more studies are also aiming to assess graphene’s toxicity on human health. The various studies carried out on the subject all agree that the type of graphene, its quality, the degree of concentration and the level of exposure have different impacts. However, they show that

LNE is the French National Metrology Institute responsible for developing French measurement references (incl. the standard meter, standard kilogram, to name bu a few). These references provide industrial players with the primary calibration resources they need to obtain comparable, reliable data to support decision-making. As such, it is funded by
‘[…] a highly topical issue in the science community: that of research data management and FAIR data.’ [Peer-Reviewer 1] A new paper on data management laments that the processes underlying the best practices of research data management were ‘overly focussed on the needs of specific research projects or aligned to
A young start-up based in German and Slovenia, Seven Past Nine (7P9) specialises in the provision of data stewardship and solutions for the life sciences. Slow or missing exchange of information and knowledge (and providing all underlying data to back it up) is still seen as one of the major
To support development, harmonisation, and benchmarking of testing methods applied within the HorizonEurope-funded Project, a MACRAMÉ Control Material Library (CML) has been established. The Library contains representative materials with largely known properties impacting the in vitro test development and of materials to be investigated in the MACRAMÉ Use Cases (UCs).
