Card Game: The Human Exposome

The objective of the first edition of Escolab was helping students to understand the concept of the exposome. This involves all the elements we are exposed to throughout our lives, whether external (such as pollution or climate), personal (such as diet) or internal (such as gut microbiota), as well as understanding how they impact our health. To address the topic in the classroom or other educational settings, here you will find an introductory presentation and a card game to work on the concepts in a group and playful way.
