@ProfMikeWood @clairecorkhill I too have spent far too much time in the Red Forest and until recently the highest levels were in the 0.27 mSv/h range. There are vast areas in the 0.05 - 0.1 mSv/h range. But, following forest fires levels have gone up dramatically: https://t.co/Nyx18GhmxW

@clairecorkhill I have spent far too much time in the Red Forest over the years. Until a few years ago the highest I would encounter was also in the 0.27 mSv/h range with vast expanses in the 0.05 - 0.1 mSv/h range. However, following fires we see massive increases:

This just in from a colleague near Chernobyl:
"Russian military invaders have already begun killing civilians. They are fighting from Gradiv to residential neighborhoods and orphanages. A minibus with passengers were shot dead in the village of Dytyatky."

@anchorage40 @royalsociety @NERCscience @RATEsct Congratulations! Great work!

Our latest paper examines selection in yeast! Curiously, and contrary to expectations, there is no evidence for elevated mutation rates in Chernobyl populations.
