Human health is inextricably linked to our environment and can vary depending on genetic factors, socioeconomic disparities, and cumulative exposure to various environmental risks throughout one's life, known as the exposome. In this year’s Annual Alice Hamilton Lecture, guest speaker and expert Isabella Annesi-Maesano will explore the complex relationship between respiratory health—particularly allergies and asthma—and an individual's exposure to pollution. We will also discuss how researchers are harnessing digital technology and analytics to create personalized strategies for preventing and alleviating asthma and allergies.
