Vichy Exposome Grant

The VICHY EXPOSOME GRANT supported by VICHY Laboratoires is intended to promote and encourage research activity to characterize the skin exposome.

The Exposome Publication Prize will recognize the principal author of an outstanding paper published or accepted on original research in the field of hormones and skin or scalp.

Only publications related to sex hormones linked to skin and scalp disorders, including acne and menopause, will be considered.

The Exposome?

The human body is subjected to respond to complex exposures including environmental factors, our diet, lifestyle factors, and social influences.

For this highly complex interaction, the term exposome was coined by Dr. Christopher Wild at the International Agency for Research on Cancer, World Health Organization.

The exposome is the globality of the factors the human body is exposed to, from conception onwards. It complements the genome.

The exposome includes internal & external exposures:

  •     Climate
  •     Diet
  •     Metabolome
  •     Inflammaging
  •     Oxidation
  •     Diseases
  •     Lifestyle
  •     Environment
The grants

With the Vichy Exposome Grant, Vichy Laboratoires support research into the skin and scalp exposome with €80,000 awarded across six regional research grants and one publication prize.
