Abstract
Urban environments bring together air pollution, heat, noise, artificial light, changing dietary habits, and inequalities in access to green space. This narrative review examines how these exposures relate to molecular changes in humans, microbial communities, and wildlife, presenting an interspecies urban genomics framework.
