SUMMARY: The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO), on 
behalf of the Nanoscale Science, Engineering, and Technology (NSET) 
Subcommittee of the Committee on Technology, National Science and 
Technology Council (NSTC), will hold a workshop entitled ``Quantifying 
Exposure to Engineered Nanomaterials (QEEN) from Manufactured 
Products--Addressing Environmental, Health, and Safety Implications'' 
on July 7 and 8, 2015. This is a technical workshop with an aim to 
determine the state of exposure science and the tools and methods 
available to characterize and quantify exposure to engineered 
nanomaterials from consumer products. A main goal is to bridge 
toxicology with exposure science. The workshop will include an overview 
of the field by exposure science experts, breakout sessions to better 
understand the challenges and accomplishments thus far in exposure 
science, and a poster session.

DATES: The Workshop will be held Tuesday, July 7, 2015 from 8:00 a.m. 
until 6:30 p.m., and Wednesday, July 8, 2015 from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00
