IAC Members join the Exposomics ConsortiumThe goal of the consortium is to bring together investigators to formulate a plan to define the exposome in a way that is useful to those in health care and public health, to identify gaps in knowledge or technique, and to help develop a new generation of scientists who focus on these complex environmental influences on health.

Collaboration & Impact.Broadly, adductomics is the study of the totality of adducts (which can be nucleic acid- or protein-derived) in cells, tissues, or biological matrices such as serum/plasma or urine. The International Adductomics Consortium (IAC) brings together researchers from all over the world, who are involved in the study of the adductome.
Strategic Plan.We plan to bring together researchers and other stakeholders with an interest in nucleic acid (DNA, RNA) and protein adductomics to promote collaboration and establish guidelines and best practices. The consortium will focus on becoming a reference for anyone interested in adductomics and ultimately it will promote robust analytical approaches to advance the field.

By looking at what in the environment damages our DNA, and potentially identifying whether some individuals repair that damage better (or worse) than others, we can better understand the process of how and why illnesses occurs and, potentially, find interventions."
- Dr. Chiung-Wen Hu
