HEDIMED final Consortium Meeting in Siena

A celebration of science and the years of collaboration

The HEDIMED Consortium gathered for its final meeting in Siena from April 8th to 11th, bringing together leading minds in exposome research for a vibrant and inspiring event. Hosted in the stunning historical Rettorato building, the meeting was a true celebration of science, collaboration, and shared achievements.

Over several days, participants dived into the latest exposomic science, sharing highly interesting outcomes and enhancing strong connections that promise to inspire future co-working initiatives. The energy and warmth of the group were palpable, both during the scientific sessions and throughout social events, including poster session, a delightful walking tour through Siena’s historic heart and a memorable collaborative dinner featuring Italian cuisine!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended, presented, and contributed their great work to this final consortium gathering. We look forward to keeping the momentum alive and sharing the final highlights during the HEDIMED Stakeholder Event on May 20th. Stay tuned!
