IMPACT
By pioneering a “bench to life” approach to study the combined effects of noise and particulate matter (PM), including ultrafine particles (UFPs) and toxins, MARKOPOLO integrates diverse scientific disciplines to address both scientific and societal challenges.
- Scientific: The project investigates the health impacts of noise and air pollution, emphasizing vulnerable populations and improving FAIR data practices. MARKOPOLO aims to uncover causal mechanisms for effective interventions, assess the role of UFP metrics in disease risk, and advocate for stricter UFP emission standards.
- Technological: The project enhances disease burden estimates by refining exposure-response functions and identifying key biomarkers for noise and UFP exposure. These advancements improve risk predictions, validate interventions, and leverage innovative tools and technologies.
- Socioeconomic: The project supports regulatory efforts by providing evidence for risk assessments, guidelines, and standards. It raises awareness of environmental hazards, reduces healthcare costs, and improves quality of life. MARKOPOLO addresses climate change impacts, aligning with the European Green Deal to create a healthier, more sustainable environment.
