A Sept. 21, 2015 news item on Nanowerk announces a new series of webinars from the US National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI), Note: The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office is part of the NNI,

The National Nanotechnology Coordination Office (NNCO) will host a series of webinars from October to December 2015 sponsored by Federal agencies participating in the Nanotechnology Knowledge Infrastructure (NKI) and the Nanotechnology for Sensors and Sensors for Nanotechnology (Sensors) Signature Initiatives. This webinar series will include an introduction to nanoinformatics, an overview of nanosensor technology and applications, a regulatory case study for the development of nanosensors, and an overview of nanoinformatics applications. This series of webinars will culminate in a joint NKI and Sensors NSI webinar on data quality.

You can find more details about the upcoming webinars on the NNI’s Public Webinars webpage,
