Mapping Exposure-Induced Immune Effects: Connecting the Exposome and the Immunome
Latest News
Partner in the spotlight: UCLouvain
Headquartered in Brussels, Belgium, the Louvain Centre for Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology is a leading hub for research in the adverse effects of pollutants. The Centre brings together expertise in clinical, analytical, experimental and epidemiological sciences.
Looking back at the first EXIMIOUS Symposium
More than 60 participants joined on the afternoon of 15 June 2021 to learn more about key aspects of exposome-immunome interactions at different stages of life, looking into ways of measuring the internal exposome and the effects of occupational settings.
Launch of the EXIMIOUS Symposium series
Register now and join us online at 16:00 – 18:00 (CET) for the first EXIMIOUS Symposium “Exposome-immunome interactions: A broad introduction”.
