🖥️ Happening now - #BurdenEU webinar on the relevance of noise for population health -- novel insights into estimating the disease burden of environmental noise

↔️ Differences between Nordic countries can partly be ascribed to methodological differences in exposure definitions
E.g., the "equal distribution" approach results in lower burden estimates than the "most exposed façade" approach
