Living organisms are complex electrochemical systems that evolved over billions
of years in a world with a reasonably weak magnetic field and with few EM energy
sources. As is characteristic of living systems, they interacted with and adapted to
this environment of EM fields. In recent years there has been a massive introduction
of equipment that emits EM fields in an enormous range of new frequencies,
modulations, and intensities. The question of how these EM fields, static or low
to high frequency interact with biological systems is a complicated subject and of
great interest. Scientists with decades of practical experience are actively working to
explain how EM fields interact with biological systems and cause biological effects.
The explanation may go beyond the belief that EM properties of cells and tissues are
prime pillars of EM interaction mechanisms by considering models for the scientific
apprehension of life processes in biological systems. Collaboration among experts
in biological sciences and engineering is required for reliable EM biological effects
studies and successful medical applications.
