Mapping the environmental exposures that impact human health
Manage episode 493964863 series 73
The human exposome is the environmental equivalent of the human genome, and there's a project in the works to map it.
It's a huge project that needs to take into account our lifestyles, cultures, economics and politics. Essentially, everything but our genome.
Also, a concerning disparity between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians when it comes to kidney transplants.
And a small risk comes to light in relation to GLP-1s used for diabetes and weight loss.
