BEAR I Genetics Panel: An unexpected and troubling historical twist: The untold story of Hermann Muller's significant scientific confusion.

Journal of occupational and environmental hygiene - 1 Jul 2026

Calabrese Edward J, Pressman Peter, Selby Paul B

Abstract excerpt

Hermann J. Muller, Nobel Prize recipient for producing gene mutations, was the de facto leader of the radiation genetics community from the mid-1920s until he died in 1967. Muller had a major impact on US hereditary/cancer risk assessment policies/practices, and the course of the secondary school biological sciences curriculum development in the US and worldwide. Despite these accomplishments, Muller was at the...
