The Barcelona Exposome Symposium, a local-level event part of a larger initiative to build an International Human Exposome Network, aims to facilitate the sharing of knowledge, ideas, and resources within the exposome research community. The exposomics field aims to evaluate how a person’s lifetime environmental exposures impacts on biology and health using discovery-based analytical approaches.
