Abstract
The International Association of Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Societies (IAEMGS) is a global organization that promotes applied and basic research on environmental mutagenesis and genomics. IAEMGS is composed of 13 national and regional societies of environmental mutagenesis and genomics and the total membership is approximately 4000. IAEMGS convenes the general assembly every four years during each International Conference on Environmental Mutagens (ICEM) for communication among members of participating societies and discussion on future directions. The latest general assembly was held during the 12th ICEM/5th Asian Conference on Environmental Mutagens (ACEM) in November 2017 in Incheon, Korea. This report summarizes the topics and discussions in the general assembly.
