In May 2015, over 200 scientists signed the International EMF Scientist Appeal calling upon the United Nations as well as World Health Organization to address the emerging world wellness crisis related to prison theatre electrochemical cell phones as well as wireless devices as well as infrastructure. Electromagnetic fields bring been classified every bit a possible carcinogen yesteryear the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) since 2012. And inwards 2016, the National Toxicology Program released suing the California Department of Public Health inwards 2016 for non releasing a prison theatre electrochemical cell telephone radiations fact canvas start developed inwards 2009. This case led to the issuance of the Department’s Dec 2017 Guidance Document, How to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy from Cell Phones. Dr. Moskowitz concluded alongside thoughts on possibilities as well as priorities inwards the policy arena.
Featured Speakers
Frank Barnes, PhD, received his B.S. from Princeton University inwards electrical engineering inwards 1954 as well as his M.S., engineering, as well as PhD degrees from Stanford University inwards 1955, 1956, as well as 1958. He joined the University of Colorado inwards 1959, where he was appointed a Distinguished Professor inwards 1997. He was elected to the National Academy of Engineering inwards 2001 as well as received the Gordon Prize 2004 for innovations inwards Engineering Education from the National Academy.
Dr. Barnes is a beau of the Institute of Electrical as well as Electronics Engineers (IEEE) as well as the American Association for the Advancement of Science, as well as served every bit Vice President of IEEE for publications, Chairman of the Electron Device Society, President of the Bioelectromagnetics Society, as well as U.S. Chair of Commission K-International Union of Radio Sciences (URSI). He as well as his students bring built lasers, flash lamps, super conductors, avalanche photograph diodes as well as other electron devices. Recently they bring been studying the effects of weak magnetic fields on radical concentrations as well as changes inwards the increment charge per unit of measurement of cancers as well as other cells.
De-Kun Li, MD, PhD, MPH, is a Senior Research Scientist at the Division of Research, Kaiser Permanente Northern California. Dr. Li completed his medical preparation as well as master’s marker inwards Public Health at Shanghai Medical University hence received his PhD inwards epidemiology from the University of Washington.
Dr. Li is a reproductive as well as perinatal epidemiologist alongside extensive sense conducting epidemiologic studies examining in-utero exposures inwards relation to pregnancy outcomes as well as early on childhood diseases, including childhood obesity as well as asthma, preterm delivery, depression birthweight, nascency defects, miscarriage as well as SIDS. He has to a greater extent than than 100 peer-reviewed publications, of which he first-authored 41 as well as was the senior writer for only about other 23. He has been invited to many NIH as well as CDC report sections to review grant applications. Recognized for his long-standing sense inwards international collaborative research, Dr. Li was invited yesteryear the U.S. of America National Academy of Science to evaluate Sino-US collaboration inwards bio-medical research. He has received to a greater extent than than 10 inquiry grants from federal agencies including NIH, CDC, FDA, as well as AHRQ.
Dr. Li’s electrical flow inquiry focuses on developmental origins of fetal as well as childhood diseases which include exam of (1) in-utero environmental exposures including endocrine disruptors (e.g., BPA) as well as electromagnetic fields (EMF), (2) security as well as effectiveness of medication role during pregnancy, as well as (3) gene-environment interactions. Throughout his professional person life, he has made of import contributions to the agreement of (a) factors associated alongside reduction inwards SIDS risk, (b) wellness effects due to exposure to EMF, (c) adverse effects of in-utero exposure to caffeine, (d) deportment on of exposure to environmental endocrine disruptors, (e) run a hazard as well as orbit goodness of treating maternal depression during pregnancy, (f) parental genetic contribution to the run a hazard of preterm delivery, as well as (g) benefits of treating herpes infection during pregnancy. Dr. Li has worked closely alongside the medical communities, especially OBGYN physicians, of Kaiser Permanente Northern California.
Joel Moskowitz, PhD, is Director of the Center for Family as well as Community Health at the School of Public Health at the University of California, Berkeley. Dr. Moskowitz has published extensively on smoking as well as cancer prevention.
Since 2009 he has translated as well as disseminated inquiry on the wellness effects of prison theatre electrochemical cell telephone as well as other wireless radiations exposure. He has served every bit an advisor to the Berkeley prison theatre electrochemical cell telephone “right to know” ordinance as well as to the successful lawsuit against the California Department of Public Health led to the release of prison theatre electrochemical cell telephone security guidance that had been suppressed since 2009.
Since 2013, his website has had over 1.5 meg page views yesteryear visitors from to a greater extent than than 200 countries, which attests to the worldwide describe of piece of employment organisation virtually the deportment on of wireless radiations on our health. The Northern California chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists presented him alongside the 2018 James Madison Freedom of Information Award.
This webinar was moderated yesteryear Antoinette Stein, PhD, coordinator of the CHE EMF ScienceServ. It lasted for seventy minutes as well as was recorded for the telephone band as well as webinar archive.
