This presentation delves into the most current and credible scientific research on the biological effects of wireless communication technologies and artificial electromagnetic fields (EMFs). We will explore mechanisms of cellular dysfunction, including intracellular calcium influx, excitotoxicity, and oxidative stress, which can contribute to a wide spectrum of clinical symptoms. Clinicians will gain a deeper understanding of cofactors—such as genetic predispositions, environmental toxins, and co-existing infections—that amplify EMF sensitivity. The talk will also provide practical guidelines for screening, diagnosing, and creating more resilience to exposures.
