EIRENE at „Human Biomonitoring and PARC: from regional to international level“ conference
EIRENE was presented at „Human Biomonitoring and PARC: from regional to international level“ conference in Brussels being the part of the Belgium presidency.
Environmental exposures play a key role in the development of chronic diseases worldwide. EIRENE is a global research infrastructure that builds a coordinated network of laboratories, population studies, and databases to systematically map the human exposome – the totality of non-genetic factors influencing health over the life course.
Two day event to develop a strategic plan for the advancement of gene by environment studies to better understand human disease.
EIRENE's mission is to establish a sustainable research infrastructure enabling the advancement of exposome research in Europe by bringing together complementary capacities available in the member states, harmonizing them and upgrading to address current scientific and societal challenges in the areas of chemical exposures and population health.
EIRENE's vision is to mediate an open access to the infrastructures supporting a world-class research expanding the scientific knowledge in the area of human exposome, supporting the development of new technologies and translation of the research results to the daily lives of citizens via public-private (industry, spin-offs) or public-public (policy-making) partnerships in order to tackle a problem of non- genetic factors behind the development of chronic conditions and to improve the population health.
