NanoPAT General Assembly M43 in Graz

On 4-5 December 2023, NanoPAT partners met in Graz for their General Assembly at M43.

Thanks to all partners for the fantastic presentations showing the progress made in the last months and for the lively discussions to move forward in the next last 6 months of the project.

This week, the consortium enjoyed a winter wonderland: although this caused many delays and changes to the planning, we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery!

After our meetings we toured the famous Graz Advent markets, the Christmas crib of ice sculptures, and had time to socialise extensively during our joint lunches and dinners!

Special thanks to our colleagues from BNN, BRAVE and MUG for organising a fantastic meeting and for bringing Austrian food and culture a little closer to us.

During our stay in Graz, we were able to visit the Medical University of Graz (MUG) and the department of Biophysics and we were able to see a live demonstration of the OF2i technology developed by BRAVE Analytics.

Some impressions of the two days in Graz:

Visit of TEMASOL at FLUIDINOVA

On 20th October 2023, Blanca Suarez, from TEMASOL, visited the brand new facilities of FLUIDINOVA in Porto (Portugal), where BRAVE Analytics installed their OF2i B-Continuous prototype in one of Fluidinova’s nanohydroxyapatite reactors (as reported here).

Blanca was introduced to their pilot line using the OF2i device and all equipment involved, as part of TEMASOL activities in Task 7.4 “Nanosafety assessment & Elaboration of safety/Safety-by-Design guidelines”. The process is currently being analysed by TEMASOL staff under a risk assessment perspective to identify potential health issues, focusing on occupational exposure and nanosafety. The strategy will follow the one developed in the EU-H2020 project NanoReg2 for Safety-by-Design (SbD) implementation in industrial settings but adapted to the particulars of NanoPAT processes.

With this visit TEMASOL contributes to the SbD concept of the project, anticipating, identifying and addressing future safety issues relevant for commercially fully exploitable innovative technologies.

Standardisation Workshop organised by BNN

On 23 October 2023, our colleagues from BNN organised a Standardisation Workshop for NanoPAT’s technology developers, to get an overview of the meaning of standardisation, how it can be used and how NanoPAT and its partners can standardise their technologies.

The aim of the workshop is to hear an overall introduction to standardisation by Dr. Denis Koltsov (Director of BREC Solutions, Limited and chair of ISO TC229 (Nanotechnologies)) and to present NanoPAT technologies. A joint discussion about the impact of a standardised technology / service will be held between Dr.

Kolstov and NanoPAT technology developers.

The workshop was hosted at BNN office in Graz and counted with online and on-site of all technology providers (PDWA, BRAVE, IRIS) plus TEMASOL, as leader of the project task on standardisation. As always when partners come together, we took the chance to network and interchange experiences and knowledge.

Special thanks to Denis Koltsov, who came to Graz especially for this occasion and enriched us with his knowledge and experience.

On 24 October, Denis visited BRAVE facilities to get a better overview about the OF2i technology, in theory and in praxis, with a lab-tour and being able to see the B-continuous (B1-PAT device) and the B-curious (B2-Lab device) in real life.
