The production and application of nanomaterials is a continuously expanding topic with relevance in fields such as electronics, mechatronics, and space crafts as well as medicine, drug production and delivery, gene therapy, etc. All these novelties require follow-up in terms of methods for safety assessments related to human and environmental health. Moreover, these methods can be utilized as highly effective predictive tools based on the concept of “safe by design”.
The saftest and least expensive strategy is to prevent negative effects, because once harm is done, analysis is required, which is extremely expensive. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help scientists couple modeling and simulations with practical in-field or in-lab safety assessments.
