Research Philosophy

Our health is shaped not only by individual genetics and environment, but by complex connections with family, community, and natural ecosystems. At EpiOrbis, we combine large-scale cohort data with omics to epidemiologically unravel these connections.

Theme 01

Precision Health

We integrate large-scale cohort data with genomic, epigenomic, and metabolomic omics information to understand how health states manifest differently across individuals.

Current work includes individual risk assessment using polygenic risk scores (PRS) and development of early intervention approaches using biomarkers.

Theme 02

Family & Perinatal Epidemiology

Through cohort studies of pregnant women, children, and whole families, we explore the mechanisms of health formation across the lifecourse.

We focus on how environmental exposures during pregnancy affect child health, and on within-family health interactions.

Theme 03

Environment, Ecosystems & Health

We use epidemiological approaches to elucidate relationships between natural environments, ecosystems, and human health — including greenspace access and associations between air, water, and soil pollution and health outcomes.

From a planetary health perspective, we aim to build a research framework that integrates ecosystem conservation with human health.
