Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | BMC PUBLIC HEALTH, 18 (Art N° 260) | Abstract: | The final meeting of the EXPOsOMICS project "Final Policy Workshop and Stakeholder Consultation" took place 28-29 March 2017 to present the main results of the project and discuss their implications both for future research and for regulatory and policy activities. This paper summarizes presentations and discussions at the meeting related with the main results and advances in exposome research achieved through the EXPOsOMICS project; on other parallel research initiatives on the study of the exposome in Europe and in the United States and their complementarity to EXPOsOMICS; lessons learned from these early studies on the exposome and how they may shape the future of research on environmental exposure assessment; and finally the broader implications of exposome research for risk assessment and policy development on environmental exposures. The main results of EXPOsOMICS in relation to studies of the external exposome and internal exposome in relation to both air pollution and water contaminants were presented as well as new technologies for environmental health research (adductomics) and advances in statistical methods. Although exposome research strengthens the scientific basis for policy development, there is a need in terms of showing added value for public health to: improve communication of research results to non-scientific audiences; target research to the broader landscape of societal challenges; and draw applicable conclusions. Priorities for future work include the development and standardization of methodologies and technologies for assessing the external and internal exposome, improved data sharing and integration, and the demonstration of the added value of exposome science over conventional approaches in answering priority policy questions. | Notes: | Vineis, P (reprint author), Imperial Coll London, Sch Publ Hlth, MRC PHE Ctr Environm & Hlth, Norfolk Pl, London W2 1PG, England, p.vineis@imperial.ac.uk | Keywords: | Exposome; Workshop report; External exposome; Internal exposome; Air pollution; Water contamination; Adductomics; Statistics; Policy | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/26255 | ISSN: | 1471-2458 | e-ISSN: | 1471-2458 | DOI: | 10.1186/s12889-018-5160-z | ISI #: | 000425470000002 | Rights: | © The Author(s). 2018 Open Access This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided you give appropriate credit to the original author(s) and the source, provide a link to the Creative Commons license, and indicate if changes were made.
