This work describes career "adventures" into applied research in environmental mutagenesis. Surprising and interesting results, as well as publications in Nature and Science, may counter an assumption that applied research is not as exciting or impactful as basic research. The narrative is described in terms of "mentors," whose advice had a lasting impact and resonated in many ways.

Recombinant DNA technology has profoundly advanced virtually every aspect of biological and medical sciences, from basic research to biotechnology. Here, I discuss conceptual connections linking fundamental discoveries that were enabled by the technology, advances in the understanding of gene regulation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and the recent FDA-approved CRISPR-based gene therapy for sickle cell anemia and β-thalassemia based on transcriptional derepression.

Background: In response to activated patient communities' catalyzation, two significant efforts by the FDA to expedite treatments have now been in place for multiple decades.

The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994 defined the FDA's statutory authority to regulate dietary supplement products as a category of food in the United States. As we celebrate 30 years post-DSHEA, it is important to reflect on its significance for public health, influence on the continuously evolving and expanding product category, the current regulatory framework, and potential opportunities or modernizing oversight to ensure a strong and well-regulated marketplace. An estimated three-fourths of U.
