【 摘 要 】

Abstract The 30th summer school of the Research Community for Mechanisms of Mutations was held on September 2nd-3rd, 2017 at the Kyoto Prefecture Seminar House. The Community celebrated the 30th anniversary of the school this year. The Community has been organizing a meeting once a year since it was founded as the Society for Mechanisms of Anti-mutagenesis and Anti-carcinogenesis Studies in 1987. The Society was reorganized to the current Community in 2006, and since then has a summer school aimed at providing information on mutation research frontiers and exchanging scientific information among young scientists such as graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and assistant professors. This year, three eminent scientists were invited to discuss radiation cluster damage, the evolution of snake venom, and colibactin and colorectal cancer, while 15 participants presented their own research. Fifty-six participants joined in enthusiastic discussions and acquired new scientific knowledge.
