Main tasks in the project
UHasselt will support the project by looking at the identification and validation of the biological pathways that mediate the influence of the exposome on health and development in early life. By doing so, UHasselt measures ageing related markers including telomere length within follow-up of ATHLETE and measures black carbon particles in biological matrixes as novel exposure marker.
