Description :

1. Close monitoring of world-wide research on genetic susceptibility as well as direct contacts and collaboration with other research groups in this field;

2. Setting up of a very widely-accessible genetic susceptibility information point, aimed above all at those who define policy such as social partners and governments, professional industrial health care practitioners, scientists, and so on, with the intention of providing scientifically correct and manageable information.
