We conduct research on the exposome's influence on children's mental health, spanning the disciplines of environmental science, pediatric psychology, and public health.
We focus on understanding specific environmental triggers, early intervention, long-term impacts, data visualization, child-centric approaches, and scientific exploration of underlying mechanisms.
