EXPOSIM is pleased to share two new videos featuring researchers from the project, highlighting how exposome research helps us better understand the impact of environmental and occupational exposures on human health.
The first video features Karin Sørig Hougaard from the National Research Centre for the Working Environment and Professor Matthias Ketzel from Aarhus University. Together, they discuss how air pollution modelling is used to estimate environmental exposures across large populations and how these data can help researchers investigate links between air pollution, noise, green spaces, climate factors and autoimmune diseases.
The second video focuses on occupational exposures among firefighters. In this discussion, Rani Claus from KU Leuven and Susana Viegas from NOVA National School of Public Health explain how EXPOSIM collaborates with firefighter cohorts across Europe to study high-exposure environments and their potential impact on immune health. The conversation also highlights how research findings can support practical recommendations and evidence-informed policies to better protect firefighters.
Together, these videos showcase the diversity of exposome research, from population-wide environmental exposure assessment to targeted occupational health studies. They also demonstrate the importance of collaboration between researchers, professionals and stakeholders in translating scientific knowledge into real-world impact.
