EXPOSUM Institute Annual Day

As the academic year begins, the Institut ExposUM enters a pivotal year: it is about to cross the symbolic milestone of its mid-term. This key moment will be an opportunity to reaffirm its ambition to advance research, training and science-society dialogue around the major challenges of the exposome.
