Expressions of Interest

Calls for Expressions of Interest are support mechanisms for initiatives that promote dialogue between the research community and society on issues related to the exposome.

These activities can take various forms: the establishment of research networks, seminars, study days, workshops, symposia, conferences, exhibitions, field studies, internships, or any other scientific event focusing on the environmental determinants of human health.

These projects are based on a transdisciplinary approach and bring together scientific research with civil society stakeholders (public institutions, nonprofit organizations, private-sector entities, etc.).

The purpose of the Calls for Expressions of Interest is to apply knowledge related to the exposome. They aim to develop comprehensive mitigation strategies tailored to the local context and to encourage innovation by creating a “Science-Society” interface to promote the results.

Each supported project includes at least one communication or outreach activity (conference, public event, film or documentary screening, etc.) to highlight the work that has been done and promote its dissemination to a wide audience.

Expressions of Interest are initiatives led by the Interfaces research area at the ExposUM Institute.
