The International Standardisation Roadmap for Nanomedicine: feedback from LNE workshop
On November 13, 2023, the nanomedicine community witnessed a landmark event with the “International Standardisation Roadmap for Nanomedicine” workshop. Co-sponsored by METRINO and NanoMeasureFrance, and hosted by the Project coordinator LNE, this workshop served as a crucial platform for advancing nanomedicine metrology.
Event Highlights:
- Collaborative Platform: Featuring key players in nanomedicine characterisation and standardisation, including JRC, NPL, LNE, NIST, NRC Canada, and SINTEF Industry, alongside EDQM, CEN, ISO, ASTM, and VAMAS.
- Industry and Innovation Focus: Representatives from the European Commission’s PHOENIX and SAFE-n-MEDTECH OITBs shared insights on supporting nanotechnology-based health products.
- Robust Participation: Over 74 participants, predominantly from the health sector and service providers, engaged in in-depth discussions on metrology and standardisation in nanomedicine.
Key Takeaways:
- Priority on Standard Test Methods: Emphasis on developing standard test methods and Reference Materials (RMs) for nanomedicines, a key priority for the European Commission and various stakeholders.
- Addressing Standardisation Complexity: Recognising the fragmented landscape of international standardisation bodies and the need for a unified approach.
- European Group on Nanomedicine Standardisation: Proposing the creation of a dedicated Working Group under CEN/TC 352 to consolidate efforts and develop a nanomedicine standardisation roadmap.
- Enhancing Collaboration: Strengthening ties between standardisation committees and organisations like ICH and EDQM, with METRINO and the newly formed CCQM Task Group on Particle Metrology spearheading networking actions.
