Diagram showing the scope of the Environment & Human Health Programme, its interfacial nature of the research and the focus on transport and effects of pollutant chemicals, particles and pathogens. Future research challenges are indicated in the interfacial areas between particles, chemicals and pathogens, which include biogenic toxins from cyanobacteria and algae, harmful particle coatings of microbial origin, and indications that the complex aetiology of type 1 diabetes may involve both viral infection and environmental chemical exposure [14, 16, 17.]
