	Muller, Hermann Joseph
		His studies of the processes and frequencies of mutations enabled Muller to form a picture of the arrangements and recombinations of genes and later led to his experimental induction of genetic mutations through the use of X rays in 1926.
		Muller was a socialist, and he initially viewed the Soviet Union as a progressive, experimental society that could pursue important research in genetics and eugenics.
		The award of the Nobel Prize to Muller in 1946 increased his opportunities to publicize one of his major concerns--the dangers posed by accumulating spontaneous mutations in the human gene pool as a result of industrial processes and radiation.

	Muller, Hermann Joseph (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Muller campaigned against the needless use of X-rays in diagnosis and treatment, and pressed for safety regulations to ensure that people who were regularly exposed to X-rays were adequately protected.
		Muller was born in New York and studied at Columbia.
		In 1919 Muller found that the mutation rate was increased by heat, and that heat did not always affect both of the chromosomes in a chromosome pair.

	Hermann J. Muller - Biography
		Hermann Joseph Muller was born in New York City on December 21, 1890.
		His grandparents on his father's side were of artisan and professional background and, though at first Catholics, had emigrated from the Rhineland during the wave of reaction of 1848 to seek the greater freedom of America.
		Her parents had come from Britain, but were in the main descended from Spanish and Portuguese Jews who, as an after-effect of the Inquisition, had settled generations earlier in England and Ireland.

	the creation of genetic identity
		Hermann Muller worked in the Morgan laboratory from 1912 to 1920, but ended up leaving Morgan's lab under estranged circumstances, convinced that Morgan's group had used his ideas without adequate credit.
		Muller was the member of Morgan's lab who most seriously embraced the eugenic precepts of directed human selection, and as a result, he was also the member of Morgan's lab to be the loudest in his objections to the path on which the Eugenic Society was moving.
		Muller's talk at the Eugenics Conference of 1932, "The Dominance of Economics over Eugenics," was intended to take the society to task for its simplistic definition of 'unfit,' while espousing his socialist political proclivities.

	NS&T : History : Hall of Fame : Hermann Joseph Muller
		Hermann Muller, the father of radiation genetics, began his career with T.H. Morgan studying mutations in fruit flies (Drosophila).
		Muller grew impatient with the mutation rate in Drosophila and was the first to increase the mutation rate using heat.
		By the late 1940s, the nuclear weapons testing program had begun and Muller was back in the United States, a vocal critic of the Atomic Energy Commission's views on the hazards of worldwide fallout.

	Living Legacies
		In 1926, Muller obtained the startling result that by bombarding flies with X rays he could produce several hundred fly mutants in one day, as compared to the 400 spontaneous viable mutations that Morgan and his group had observed in working with twenty million flies during twenty years of Drosophila research.
		Among his other accomplishments, Muller also had the remarkable foresight to recognize as early as 1921 that micro-organisms and, specifically, bacterial viruses (phages) offered the next step in efforts to understand the molecular nature of the gene.
		Once the ability to mutate genes at will was at hand, geneticists were in a position to study how a single gene controls the function of the cell.
