Emerging contaminants | EXIMIOUS Symposium | 31 October 2024

This final EXIMIOUS Symposium, titled “Emerging contaminants: health risks associated with microplastics and indoor air quality” will took place on 31st October 2024. Emerging contaminants (ECs) constitute a wide range of chemicals, including flame retardants, perfluorochemicals, pharmaceuticals, microplastics and a wide range of personal care products. Many of these ECs may undergo various degrees of transformation in the environment and can often be more persistent and exhibit greater toxicity than the parent compound. In this symposium we ask ourselves what are the impact of air quality and EC exposure on human health? How do we assess the risks? And in doing so we hope to talk to the policy needs to tackle the challenges. Our three invited experts present their latest research on the topic, each highlighting a different aspect as shown below: 0:00 Introduction to the symposium 6:59 Human risk assessment of microplastics - Dr. Raymond Pieters 42:59 Air quality and children's cognition, with a focus on school air quality - Prof. Xavier Basagaña 01:18:49 Living in the plastic age: chemicals leaching from plastic and possible health effects - Dr. Hubert Dirven
