In [[1790]], elections in the Congress appointed a new Prime Minister. Soon after, the Science Minister of the old administration retired, and the job passed to Jaton, who became the first joined Trill to hold a position in the Cabinet. Under him, the Science Ministry enjoyed a great time of prosperity and progress, including many iimprovements to the Trill warp drive system, allowing Trill ships, for the first time since they achieved warp drive approximately a century earlier, to pass Warp 4. His retirement from public life in [[1810]] was considered a great loss to the science community of Trill, and to some extent, the known galaxy at that point in time.

In [[1824]], Jaton was diagnosed with Hemocythemia, a terminal disease that had no cure known to the Trill at the time. Doctors gave Jaton only a few years left to live, and he began to get his affairs in order, including to whom the Belden symbiont should be transferred to once he died. He decided to leave the decision up to the Symbiosis Commission. He held on for eight more years, and died in [[1832]] in Mak'ala, and was buried with all honors afforded a member of the Trill Cabinet.
