【 摘 要 】

References(13)After the outstanding and successful 11th International Conference on Environmental Mutagens (11th ICEM) in Brazil and its associated satellite meetings, I would like to take this time to write about the International Association of Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Societies (IAEMGS) as we begin the next four years before the 12th ICEM in Korea. In this report, I will provide a short history of the IAEMS/IAEMGS and then describe three challenges that I see as the most critical for the Society during the next four years. These are: (i) enhance interdisciplinary research on environmental genomics and genotoxicology, (ii) establish opportunities for young scientists in developing countries to meet and collaborate with experienced scientists in industrialized countries, and (iii) improve the financial status of the IAEMGS.
