Abstract

Exposomics is a field of research which is receiving growing attention. In this work, we characterize the exposome research landscape and update our previous study of formal knowledge representation approaches to this field. We applied a deductive analysis using the National Center for Biomedical Ontology Recommender for comparability of the results generated from a literature dataset and newly available ontologies with our previously published work. We highlight the changes in ontology recommendations.
