Genetic effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields

February 7, 2021
Henry Lai (2021) Genetic effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields, Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, DOI: 10.1080/15368378.2021.1881866 ABSTRACT This is a review of the research on the genetic effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic field (EMF), mainly on radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and static and extremely low frequency EMF (ELF-EMF). The majority of the studies are on genotoxicity (e.g., DNA damage, chromatin conformation changes, etc.)...

Light pollution, sleep deprivation, and infant health at birth

February 5, 2021
Argys, LM, Averett, SL, Yang, M. Light pollution, sleep deprivation, and infant health at birth. South Econ J. 2021; 87: 849– 888. https://doi.org/10.1002/soej.12477 Abstract We conduct the first study to examine the fetal health impact of light pollution based on a direct measure of skyglow, an important aspect of light pollution. Using an empirical regularity discovered in physics (called Walker’s law) as an instrumental...
