The open symposium of the Japanese Environmental Mutagen Society (JEMS), under the title of "Comprehensive framework between environment and genomic stability," was held in the Main Conference Room of the Foundation for Promotion of Cancer Research, Tokyo, on June 8, 2019. To understand the relationship between genes and environmental mutagens, the symposium highlights the research activities in the fields of cancer, carcinogenesis and related diseases caused by genomic instabilities, including epigenetic and metabolomic alterations. The symposium was planned to help familiarize attendees with the current trends in research on genome safety. The organizers herein present a summary of the symposium.
日本环境诱变剂学会(JEMS)以“环境与基因组稳定性的综合框架”为主题的公开研讨会于2019年6月8日在东京癌症研究促进基金会的主会议室举行。为了解基因与环境诱变剂之间的关系,该研讨会重点介绍了癌症、致癌作用以及由基因组不稳定引起的相关疾病领域的研究活动,包括表观遗传和代谢组学改变。该研讨会旨在帮助与会者熟悉基因组安全研究的当前趋势。本文的组织者介绍了该研讨会的概要。
