Wireless Communication and Health: Future of the Research and the Precautionary Principle

Wireless Communication and Health: Future of the Research and the Precautionary Principle

Dariusz Leszczynski. Wireless Communication and Health: Future of the Research and the Precautionary Principle. EMANET2015. Mesrin, Turkey. Nov 13, 2015. Slides: http://bit.ly/1NQnCkQ

Dr. Leszczynski presented this keynote address today at the EMANET2015 electromagnetics conference.

Following are his conclusions:

• Currently available scientific evidence, although inconclusive, indicates that health of the ‘to-be-determined’ part of the population is possibly affected.
• Radiation dosimetry needs to be significantly improved in epidemiological and EHS studies.
• Objective data on effects of radiation on human body should be collected using screening approaches of transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics.
• While waiting for the conclusive evidence, what will take several tens of years, Precautionary Principle should be implemented as broadly as possible and feasible.
• Whenever possible and feasible, wired connections should be promoted over wireless

Dr. Leszczynski is an Adjunct Professor of Biosciences at the University of Helsinki, Finland. He worked at Finland's STUK--Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority for 22 years and has 18 years of research experience on EMF and health.  He was one of the 31 experts convened by the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer that classified cell phone and other wireless radiation "possibly carcinogenic to humans."
