Exposome in human health: Utopia or wonderland?

Summary: The current human exposome primarily emphasizes the total environmental exposure during an entire life. The characteristics of “lifelong” and “all environmental factors” make it very challenging to bring the exposomic study into real-life applications. Herein, we mainly discuss the typical...
