The linear non-threshold model (LNT) for carcinogenesis sadly is the foundation chemical and radiation risk assessment around the world. Here, the University of Massachusetts-Amherst’s Dr. Ed Calabrese explains the historical scientific fraud that underpins the LNT. Calabrese has done amazing original investigative research that has been previously published in numerous articles in various scientific journals. … Continue reading Video: Ed Calabrese explains the historical foundations and scientific misconduct behind the LNT model

“To date, regulatory agencies appear to have ignored these scientific developments and have seemingly doubled down on their assertions to support LNT, holding to a belief without a credible history and scientific foundation.” Low Rad Journal-LNTHere is the paper.

“This paper reveals that in Muller’s (1927) Nobel Prize research he used a treatment exposure (total dose) that was 95 million-fold greater than the average background exposure, a value far greater than the 200,000 fold reported by Muller and Mott-Smith (1930).” Read the paper.

“… overpowering influence of low dose biostatistical modeling perspectives that swayed the quantitatively overwhelmed chemical toxicologists. This resulted in the LNT policy going forward, becoming broadly institutionalized across many governmental agencies and in multiple countries. The rest is history.” Read the paper.

“Thus, it appears that supporting hormesis research does not appear to have been a broad and active strategy by the private sector to influence regulatory processes.” Read the paper.

The Nobel-winning inventor of the LNT model, Hermann Muller, also thought it would be a great idea to have a sperm bank stocked with the sperm of great men like Karl Marx and Lenin. It is no surprise that the LNT turned out to be entirely bogus. Ed Calabrese explains in his latest article.

If you’ve missed Calabrese’s work so far… catch up on the LNT controversy with his latest paper: “The LNT single-hit dose-response model for cancer risk assessment was conceived, formulated, and applied in a manner which is now known to have been scientifically invalid.”

The great Ed Calabrese reviews the Trump EPA’s proposal to do away with the linear nonthreshold model of junk science.

A new paper from the great Ed Calabrese. Hermann Muller’s scientific misconduct continues to plague us today via regulatory actions and rules based on the linear no-threshold model of carcinogenesis.

The LNT model was born in fraud, caused great harm, during its lifetime and will die in ignominy. We will bury it via the opportunity provided by the Trump EPA science transparency initiative.
