Highlights
Some projects have started in 2015, including HOR- MONIT (hormonal changes associated to circadian disruption in night shift workers), Fondo de Inves- tigación Sanitaria; SHAMISEN (Nuclear Emergen- cy Situations-Improvement of Medical and Health Surveillance), and OPERRA (Open Project for the European Radiation Research Area), 7th EU Frame- work Programme; ExpoStat (Statistical methods, efficient algorithmes and bioinformatic tolos to analize the exposome and its integraiton with omic data), MINECO; European Joint Programme for the Integration of Radiation Protection Research (CON- CERT), European Commission; and Acciones de Di- namización “Europa Investigación”, MINECO. These projects have provided new evidence in the environ- mental epidemiology area, in particular concerning potential health effects of radiations, water pollut- ants, green spaces, air pollution, active transport policies, and indoor pollution by mould, among other

environment exposures. In the occupational epide- miology area, these projects have provided new evi- dence about the effects in health of night shift work and cancer risk, and exposures to electromagnetic fields. Among the health effects assessed included there are several kinds of cancer in adults (prostate, bladder, breast, colorectal) and children (central nervous system), respiratory health and allergies in adults and children, reproductive effects (birth weight, gestation duration, etc.), and biomarkers, including –omics (epigenomics) and genetic data (genome wide). All this evidence provides possible recommendations to prevent disease and health promotion in the occupational settings and the pub- lic health, identifying preventable risk exposures. Results could be used by regulatory organisms to conduct a risk management based in the scientific evidence.
