A range of environmental, lifestyle and biological exposures across the lifespan — varying in timing, duration and intensity — interact with genetic factors to shape an individual’s neurocognitive phenotype. By referring to the totality of exposures that an individual has experienced in their life so far, the exposome offers a valuable concept to better understand interindividual variability in not only brain–behaviour phenotype but also vulnerability and resilience to brain diseases.
