“Mythbusters”

On 1 September 2021, an article about the unique study conducted by our biologists from the Sector of Molecular Genetics of the Cell, along with colleagues from the Baksan Neutrino Observatory of INR of RAS, was published in the newspaper “Podmoskovye segodnya” (No 163 (5071)). We quote the article author Ilya Batsaev, “Scientists across the world go on arguing about how a subnormal level of radiation changes activity of human genes and what is the lower threshold of its harmful impact. Researchers of the Dzhelepov Laboratory of Nuclear Problems of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research from Dubna, together with colleagues from the Baksan Neutrino Observatory, performed the Russia’s first experiment on the impact of the low radiation level on living organisms. The result invalidates all previous theories of foreign colleagues.”
