Mission
The harmful effects of environmental pollution on human health & ecosystem are being focused as important research areas at national and global level. Mutagenesis is the biological response in the genome after exposure to environmental toxicants and stressors. Therefore the overall mission of EMSI is to promote scientific education and research in the field of mutagenesis and to provide a scientific forum for persons who are engaged or are interested in research, education and applications of knowledge on
(a) Mechanisms of mutagenesis,
(b) Mutagenicity as related to carcinogenicity and teratogenicity,
(c) Testing Methodology,
(d) Evaluation of mutagenicity of chemicals and drugs,
(e) Correlation of chemical structure with mutagenicity;
Further to disseminate information on these aspects; and to stimulate scientific interest in and promote the ex- change of ideas and information about problems of mutagenesis at the experimental and clinical level.
