The subject areas of Mutation Research - Reviews in Mutation Research (MRR) encompass the entire spectrum of the science of mutation research and its applications, with particular emphasis on the relationship between mutation and disease. Thus, this section will cover: Advances in human genome research (including evolving technologies for mutation detection and functional genomics) with applications in clinical genetics, gene therapy and health risk assessment for environmental agents of concern Genetic toxicology and environmental mutagenesis (including the factors that modulate the genetic activity of environmental agents) will continue to be prominent topics in this section. MRR supports and follows the general direction proposed by all major societies in the field part of the International Association of Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Societies (IAEMGS): Asociacion Latinoamericana de Mutagenesis, Carcinogenesis y Teratogenesis Ambiental (ALAMCTA) Brazilian Association of Mutagenesis and Environmental Genomics (MutaGen-Brasil) Chinese Environmental Mutagen Society (CEMS) European Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Society (EEMGS) Environmental Mutagenesis and Genomics Society (EMGS) Environmental Mutagen Society of India (EMS India) Iranian Environmental Mutagen Society (IrEMS) The Japanese Environmental Mutagen Society (JEMS) Korean Environmental Mutagen Society (KEMS) Molecular and Experimental Pathology Society of Australasia (MEPSA) Pan-African Environmental Mutagen Society (PAEMS) Philippines Environmental Mutagen Society (PEMS) Thai Environmental Mutagen Society (TEMS) Other Mutation Research sections: DNA Repair Mutation Research - Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis (MR) Mutation Research - Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis (MRGTEM)
