Bioelectromagnetics Laboratory
- Projects
in vitro studies
• Investigation of effects of RF on neuronal cells
such as blood-brain barrier, rat hippocampal slices, mixed primary
cultures of neurons and glial cells
• Real time imaging for studying neuronal cells gap
junction communication and axonal growth
• Long Term Potentiation (LTP), memory formation and
other studies relating to brain function
Human volunteer studies
• The analysis of Evoked Electroencephalographic (EEG)
responses to of auditory, visual and cognitive tasks during exposure
to mobile phone radiofrequency emissions (compared to sham exposure)
• The analysis of sleep patterns and electrophysiological
parameters in volunteers following exposure to mobile phone radiofrequency
emissions immediately before going to sleep (compared to sham
exposure)
• Analysis of the output of nocturnal urinary melatonin
metabolite following exposure to mobile phone emissions (compared
to sham exposure, as above)
Modelling
• Modelling of the effects of currents or RF radiation
on complex intercellular or intracellular biological system to
understand the multiple feedbacks on the complex biological interaction
Modelling of induced currents in electricity supply industry high-voltage
workers, particularly in relation to live-line maintenance work and
in pregnant workers
