Climate Change and Exposomics

Climate change affects the human health. Climate change factors such as temperature, humidity, rain and greenery, can be assessed using geo-spatial technologies. In this webinar Dr Itai Kloog will discuss how we can leverage the advanced resources in the satellite and geo-spatial fields to generate the external exposome datasets. Analysis of these datasets along with health records can provide new insights into how climate change factors can modify the disease risk, diagnosis and treatment and how we can develop mitigation strategies to protect the human health from climate change.
