The Occupational Exposome Week has concluded with resounding success, bringing together over 500 participants from across Europe and beyond to explore the latest developments in occupational exposure science. Held from 20–26 March 2025, this five-part webinar series was jointly organised by the EXIMIOUS and EPHOR projects, both funded under the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 research

Funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme, EXIMIOUS and EPHOR focus on delivering a new way of assessing the human exposome, specifically the occupational exposome. Both projects are part of the European Human Exposome Network (EHEN). The symposia are open to all audiences and will explore key topics related to occupational

The EXIMIOUS project has released a new Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) tool as part of their toolbox to standardise the collection, storage, and shipment of biological samples for analysing internal exposome markers. The EXIMIOUS project, which gathers extensive data to study exposome markers, operates across diverse sites such as mines, factories, and hospitals. This complexity

The European Human Exposome Network (EHEN) has recently published the sixth issue of its newsletter, packed with updates and insights from all projects. This edition features a preview of the HEAP Symposium, which will present the latest results from the EHEN Working Group on Ethics and Law. Beyond the symposium preview, the newsletter will provide

The sixth EXIMIOUS Symposium was held online Thursday, 7 March 2024, attracting around 40 participants. This edition, titled “Internal effect markers: immune, genetics and epigenetics”, zoomed in on the topic of the impacts environmental and occupational exposures have on our health through three talks by the invited experts Dr. Unni Cecilie Nygaard (Norwegian Institute of

One of EXIMIOUS’s main objectives is to develop a toolbox catering to diverse stakeholders, facilitating their understanding and use of the project’s findings, outcomes and results. This toolbox will provide resources tailored for patients, researchers, policymakers, and decision-makers, empowering them to generate data and insights, even beyond the end of the EXIMIOUS project.  EXIMIOUS has
