Hermann Joseph Muller, an American geneticist, was awarded the 1946 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery that mutations can be induced by X-rays. He also highlighted the long-term risks associated with radioactive fallout from nuclear activities, leading to greater public awareness and scrutiny of nuclear practices. Muller’s work in genetics and advocacy for the safe use of radiation have had a lasting impact on scientific research and public policy.
