Researchers on the CUSSH project have developed a microsimulation model, MicroEnv, which calculates the impact of environmental exposures on health and health inequalities. This can help policy-makers, as It may act as an aid in selecting policies likely to yield greatest health and environmental co-benefits. MicroEnv allows the integration of a range of health outcomes and the generation of results at a high spatial resolution.
