EMFSA September 2025 Newsletter: RFK Jr. warns about Wi-Fi and 5G — so why push for wearables? In this issue, we explore a striking contradiction: while U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. has publicly raised concerns about Wi-Fi, 5G, and cell phones, he is promoting a nationwide rollout of wearable health devices. From...

The EMFSA June 2025 Newsletter explores new and emerging research across biology, health, and technology — from naturally occurring electric fields in hummingbirds to the interaction between EMFs and dental materials. Nature’s own modulation: Some species sense and respond to subtle electric fields — a contrast to man-made wireless signals. Image adapted from a photo...

What kind of modulation happens in nature? In hummingbirds, it’s created by movement and friction — and sensed by mites evolved to detect it. Image adapted from a photo by James Wainscoat on Unsplash. García-Robledo et al. (2025) showed that hummingbird flower mites detect and respond to modulated electric fields generated by hummingbirds, using electroreception...

Autism, Circadian Disruption and Pregnancy form a triad that deserves closer attention, as emerging evidence suggests that disruptions to the mother’s circadian rhythm during pregnancy may influence the risk of autism spectrum disorders in offspring. Blue light exposure at night can disrupt the mother’s circadian rhythm — a factor increasingly linked to fetal development and...

A recent 5G research study on the effects of future signals on human skin cells was announced with great fanfare. It was quickly followed by attention-grabbing headlines claiming that the study proves—once and for all—that “5G is absolutely safe.” This post is a response to both the research paper and the surrounding media coverage. A...

Antibiotic use in mammalian skin cell cultures is a common method to prevent microbial contamination during laboratory experiments. However, growing evidence suggests that antibiotics—particularly streptomycin—can significantly alter cellular processes such as gene expression, mitochondrial function, and epigenetic regulation. In studies exploring subtle biological effects, such as those triggered by electromagnetic fields (EMFs) or radiation, these...
