Main lines of research
The research of the group is focused in environmental, occupational and genetic factors related to cancer, respiratory disease and child health. Among the main exposures, the group is focused on radiations (smartphones, UV, ionizing), water pollutants (disinfection by-products in drinking water and swimming pools), air pollution, transport and green spaces in urban areas, hormonal disruption, life style (diet, passive smoking), as well as occupational studies on asthma and COPD and on shift-work and circadian cycle disruption. In the last years we have extensively applied approaches described as the Exposome including new technologies to assess environmental exposure (e.g. Smartphones, GIS) and new biomedical technologies (biomarkers, genomics, epigenetics, metabolomics, transcriptomics) and implemented complex statistics and bioinformatics methods. The group has an important international reputation and devotes considerable efforts in education, dissemination and knowledge transfer. Research of the group is funded by grants from FIS, FP7 (EU), and Horizon2020.
