New ABCD assessments have started: Environmental exposures
Before the summer holidays, ABCD study participants have received a questionnaire from the Public Health Service (GGD) of Amsterdam. This questionnaire is part of the ABCD study and assesses environmental exposures to air pollution, noise and electromagnetic fields in the child’s environment.
Since October 2011 two ABCD teams started to visit primary schools in Amsterdam to assess environmental exposures in the school.
If you have any questions regarding the questionnaire or school assessments, please contact us via: 020-555 5092 or abcd@ggd.amsterdam.nl
