- the design and implementation of complex interventions, underpinned with evidence from other disciplines including anthropology, social sciences, health psychology and urban planning;
- the use of more novel applications to capture cross sectional and longitudinal behaviour and outcome measures;
- using digital/web-based techniques of crowd-sourcing, social media, geo-coding, and machine learning;
- the use of novel techniques to assess the exposome
