She also played a key role in bringing together a geographically and academically diverse group of stakeholders for the forum and its supporting committees.

Please join us in congratulating the Forum's Organizing Committee for facilitating such and dynamic and undoubtably successful landmark event.

At the center of this work has been Fenna Sillé, Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins University. She spent many days pouring energy and enthusiasm into making this extremely hands-on event a reality.

Sir Peter Gluckman, President of the International Science Council (ISC), shared remarks remotely, charging attendees with the challenging but increasingly necessary work of combining efforts and facilitating international collaboration. 🕸️

And after all that - we celebrated! 🍾

Gary W. Miller introduced us, in more detail, to the scope of this effort and this field's founder, Chris Wild, with a few words he penned to motivate and acknowledge those invested in moving the exposome to a new phase. 🖌️

Thank you to our fantastic panel of experts for joining and engaging attendees in an insightful discussion on policy and exposome integrations:

Some key messages:

🌍 The Global South must be brought on board and involved from day one

🕰️ To engage policy-makers engage the public early and often

🪡 Be strategic about which facets of this project you emphasize when pitching potential stakeholders

Over the next three days, the #ExposomeMoonshotForum will aim to answer that question. That answer will include real, actionable and, where possible, immediate interventions that can provide a foundation and framework for the boldest vision possible. 🔭

Join us this week and next to hear from the remarkable #ExposomeAstronauts helping us prepare for launch.

We'll be asking questions like "what perspective do you think is missing from the current conversation on exposomics?"; "what new technology do you think is most important to advance exposomics?"; "where do you think industry investment is most crucial?". 🤔
