SciLifeLab Umeå and KBC warmly welcome you to participate in the lunch seminar on Wednesday, 10 June:
Presenter:
Stefano Papazian, Head of unit National Facility for Exposomics, SciLifeLab, Stockholm University
Description:
Exposomics is an emerging field focused on the comprehensive characterization of environmental exposures and their impacts on human and ecosystem health. The exposome concept encompasses the lifetime exposure of an individual to synthetic chemicals, environmental pollutants, pharmaceuticals, consumer products, dietary components, and other exogenous small molecules, together with the biological responses they trigger.
At SciLifeLab, the National Facility for Exposomics (Metabolomics & Exposomics Platform), located at Campus Solna and coordinated by Stockholm University (Department of Environmental Science), provides advanced infrastructure and expertise in chemical exposomics using high-resolution mass spectrometry and computational workflows for large-scale assessment of the chemical exposome. The facility supports targeted and untargeted analysis of complex chemical mixtures across a broad range of biological and environmental samples, including human biofluids and tissues, wildlife, air, water, and other environmental matrices.
In this seminar, Stefano Papazian, Head of Unit at the National Facility for Exposomics, will introduce the field of chemical exposomics, present the analytical techniques and workflows available at the facility, and highlight selected examples of user projects in human cohorts, environmental health, and planetary biology.
