BfR rapport: hoe Duitsers denken over nanotechnologie

Under the name of NanoView, the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) has completed a research project on the perception of nanotechnology by the German population and media. In 2007, the BfR investigated how the German population perceived nanotechnology and how the topic is presented in the German media. NanoView was an extended investigation. The current results show that consumers are now generally less aware of nanotechnology than in 2007. At the same time, fewer reports on the subject appear in the media. Despite the existing knowledge gaps, the benefits of nanotechnology are seen by a clear majority to definitely outweigh any potential risks (BfR Persbericht, 27 november 2013).
