The LabOpp Global Leaders podcast is a series of conversations about Careers, the Lab Industry, Training, and People.

In this episode, we meet Konstantinos Makris. Konstantinos’ work and research focus on exposomes. What is an exposome? Konstantinos clearly defines it and provides a context for its potential future use. While still in the early stages, the advances and investments being made into research in this field suggest it should be on everyone’s radar.

If you would like to get in touch with Konstantinos, you can find him on LinkedIn
