About Instituto de Saúde Ambiental (ISAMB)

ISAMB is a research center of the Lisbon School of Medicine (FMUL) devoted to Environmental Health (EH) funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) (Ref. UIDB/04295/2020 e UIDP/04295/2020). ISAMB is organized into five Research Groups (Supportive Environments for Public Health and Health Promotion; Supportive Environments for Individuals’ Lifespan Development; Environment and Non-Communicable Diseases; Environment and Infectious Diseases; Ecogenetics and Human Health), and three Labs (Environmental Health Behaviour Lab; EnviHealthMicro Lab; Evolution & Reproduction Lab) each encompassing convergent R&D lines that comprise the specialization areas, skills and competences of more than 150 members. ISAMB's organization takes advantage from the privileged inclusion in FMUL and from the association with the country's largest university hospital (Hospital de Santa Maria). This raises the opportunity of putting together the strengths in public health, different clinical areas and gene-environment interactions. Over the last few years, ISAMB has participated and acted as a promoter in several research projects funded by national and internationally public and private entities (e.g., EEA Grants, H2020, Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) and Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation).
