Highlights
Some projects have started in 2015, including HORMONIT (hormonal changes associated to circadian disruption in night shift workers), Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria; SHAMISEN (Nuclear Emergency Situations-Improvement of Medical and Health Surveillance), and OPERRA (Open Project for the European Radiation Research Area), 7th EU Framework 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 (CONCERT), European Commission; and Acciones de Dinamización “Europa Investigación”, MINECO, Exposomics (FP7), Helix (FP7), BlueHealth (Horizon2020). These projects have provided new evidence in the environmental epidemiology area, in particular concerning potential health effects of radiations, water pollutants, green spaces, air pollution, active transport policies among other environment exposures. In the occupational epidemiology area, these projects have provided new evidence 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 (e.g. epigenomics) and genetic data (genome wide). All this evidence provides possible recommendations to prevent disease and health promotion in the occupational settings and the public health, identifying preventable risk exposures. Results could be used by regulatory organisms to conduct a risk management based in the scientific evidence. Members of the group participated in numerous international committees e.g of the WHO and others.
