- Two new studies on Chernobyl were just released. The first shows that people who had high radiation exposure aren't more likely to pass mutations on to their children than people who didn't. The second shows that while the radiation alters the subjects' DNA, it didn't do so at dangerous levels. https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/chernobyl-meltdown-fallout 31 comments science
