Climate Exposures in the Human Exposome

Funds climate-health exposome research linking lifelong exposures, disease burden, vulnerability and resilience.

ScheduledEuropean CommissionEU

Climate change alters the human exposome through heat, air pollution, drought and other direct and indirect pressures that interact with chemical, biological, social, lifestyle and psychosocial exposures over the life course. This Research and Innovation Action will make climate factors integral to exposome science and health-impact assessment.

Projects must incorporate multiple climate exposures

Integrate climate-related exposures into human exposome research and characterise changes in response to climate change. Combine environmental, chemical, physical, biological, nutritional, occupational, psychosocial, social and behavioural exposures with health, omics and medical data. Develop FAIR, multiscale and multidisciplinary methods, indicators, biomarkers, models and interventions that identify emerging risks, benefits and disparities.
