Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks

The SCENIHR provides scientific opinions on questions concerning emerging or newly identified risks on non-food products, as well as on broad, complex or multidisciplinary issues requiring a comprehensive assessment of risks to consumer safety or public health not covered by other risk assessment bodies. Examples of areas of activity include new technologies (such as nanotechnologies), medical devices, antimicrobial resistance, physical risks (such as noise and electromagnetic fields), and methodologies of risk assessment. == Procedures ==

SCENIHR's scientific advisory procedures are based on the principles of scientific excellence, independence and transparency. == See also ==
