Exposomics: a new omic to address the non-genetic drivers of health and disease

Exposomics is a new field designed to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the non-genetic drivers of human disease. Genetic scan only explain a minority of chronic human diseases, and does not provide insight into health disparities. In contrast, our complex environment is responsible for a wide range of human diseases, and disparate outcomes.
