The Applied Genetic Toxicology SIG focusses on emerging and regulatory issues related to the exposure of human population and environment to genotoxic compounds such pharmaceutics, consumer products, chemical products.

The DNA Repair Special Interest Group focuses on DNA repair and related areas such as DNA damage, genomic instability, DNA damage responses, and cell death pathways.

The Epigenomics SIG focuses on the role of epigenetic changes in genotoxicity, representing all aspects of epigenomics with an emphasis on how chemical and non-chemical exposures alter the epigenome, thus influencing phenotype, health, aging and disease.

The Genomics and Data Sciences SIG welcomes members who are interested in using genomics, bioinformatics, computational biology and tools in related fields to investigate the impact of the environment on the genome.

The GRAPH SIG welcomes EMGS members interested in the mechanistic and applied aspects of genotoxicity assessment, particularly matters that can inform risk assessment, regulatory decision-making, and public health.

The Germ Cell and Heritable Effects SIG brings together experts undertaking research and regulation pertaining to impacts of human germ cell exposures to endogenous factors and xenobiotics in a discussion and debate forum.

The Mutagenic Mechanisms and Assessment Special Interest Group focuses on mutagenic mechanisms and the development, validation and application of methods to assess mutagenicity, including in laboratory animals, cell lines, and humans.

Special Interest Group Leaders aid in the governance and policies of the EMGS Special Interest Groups in terms of administration, outreach, and annual updates on activities and membership within these groups.

The Women in the EMGS (WEMGS) group focuses on women’s issues within the EMGS as well as broader issues that face many women in scientific careers such as social, economic, and political pressures.
