Act Together for Public Health!
a potential new French flyer!
thx to Laura!
another, more colorful, possibility... thx to Maria!
Concern about hair dyes started everything for AGiR!
Then, we focused particularly on smoking for the original flyer campaign...
As we celebrated a previous anniversary, we thought already that tattoo risks were to be considered next (as it's better to do this earlier, rather than later, it seems !), instead.
However, another anniversary is soon coming! We want to make more impact, locally, and so are making French the first language and testing the waters... :-)
What are your main worries and interests, in terms of avoidable risks to health?
Did you know that changing habits can make a big difference!?
You are always very welcome to write us at genomicintegrity (at) gmail (dot) com for more information...
We hope to launch a new flyer on the next anniversary!
wdyt of the two above?
Wondering if people would like merch for this group? mugs/tshirts?? This is a start... Tell us if you want more!
'agir' (aahhh-jzeer' or IPA /a.ʒiʁ/ ) means 'to act' in French
The public service association, AGiR!, founded near the shore of Lake Geneva, in a French-speaking part of Switzerland, acts to provide information and promote research to help protect genomic integrity - even at this very instant, by you reading the start of this website!
Find out more by clicking in the menu (left)!
a new and improved landing site for our domain www.genomicintegrity.org in general is still of interest- contact us, please if you are a keenie with ideas! =)
Please do continue to post the old flyers in your favorite language(s), especially where people still smoke cigarettes!
Our most recent submission for the Art Call was from an awesome artist, Shih Wei-Chieh - based in Taiwan!
More Art Call submissions are always very welcome!! Art helps for science communication, they say...
(sometimes adds incentive for funding, too - so designers do not shy off of contacting us too - your projects are essential - it is the interdisciplinarity that is amazing also in this community context, plus the ideal of life-long learning... Try it!)
**for those who just joined us: =)
Genomic integrity is meant to include all molecular and genetic elements of cells! Active maintenance of these molecules and their
free interplay is essential for proper dynamic function (aka 'health').
Action for Genomic integrity through Research (AGiR!) aims to both raise awareness of the many things we choose to do which impact genomic integrity and define reliable and quantitative measurements suitable for controlled human studies and risk analysis.
Easy ways to protect genomic integrity are also recommended!
