This journal publishes research on the health impacts of environmental exposures, including toxicants like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and organophosphate ester flame retardants, as well as air pollutants such as PM2.5, O3, and NO2. Studies investigate associations between these exposures and various health outcomes, including immune development, cognitive function, autism-related traits, liver health, and respiratory diseases. The journal also covers methodological advancements in analyzing environmental mixtures and exposomics research, and examines the influence of environmental factors on infectious disease transmission and temperature-related risks.
