Abstract

A recent report issued by EMF-NET offers a lengthy list of European projects on the biological effects of power line and wireless communication electromagnetic fields. The list also includes projects on potential risks related to exposure in the working environment. The EMF-NET project is an initiative of the EC and is titled "Effects of the exposure to electromagnetic fields: from science to public health and safer workplace." This four-year project, which is to conclude in 2008, is one of the most ambitious and all-encompassing programs funded by the EC to date. It targets exposures from a wide range of nonionizing electromagnetic-energy-emitting devices, sources, and systems - including power lines, cellular mobile phones, base stations, broadcasting antennas, and household electrical appliances such as mixers and induction ovens (IH hobs) - as well as various electromagnetic equipment found in industry environments and health care facilities
