James V. Neel and Yuri E. Dubrova: Cold War debates and the genetic effects of low-dose radiation.

Journal of the history of biology - 1 Jan 2015

Goldstein Donna M, Stawkowski Magdalena E

Abstract excerpt

This article traces disagreements about the genetic effects of low-dose radiation exposure as waged by James Neel (1915-2000), a central figure in radiation studies of Japanese populations after World War II, and Yuri Dubrova (1955-), who analyzed the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident. In a 1996 article in Nature, Dubrova reported a statistically significant increase in the minisatellite (junk) DNA...
