The Information Age and EMF/RF Illness: The Potential for EMF and Radiofrequency/Microwave Radiation Illnesses and How Smart Choices in New Technologies Can Reduce Potential Risks

May 11, 2010


CHE hosted this international, in-depth discussion of current electromagnetic field research, science, health implications and policy initiatives on Tuesday May 11, 2010. As wireless technologies expand exponentially the potential impact on health is of great concern. On this call we explored what the consequences might be of global wireless technologies on various health endpoints, including cancer, Alzheimers and other neurodegenerative diseases and how new science can impact institutional shifts in policy and precautionary measures.

Featured speakers included:

Cindy Sage, MA, Co-Coordinator of CHE-EMF

Lennart Hardell, MD, PhD, Professor in oncology and cancer epidemiology at the University Hospital, Orebro, Sweden

Sam Milham, MD, Epidemiologist for Washington State Department of Health

Michael Segell, Senior Editor, Prevention Magazine

The call was moderated by Elise Miller, CHE Director.
