Abstract

The biological effects of radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) are controversial. The subject is fraught with discrepancies between studies that have shown contrasting effects. However, the potential for RF-EMF to cause harm to exposed organisms is of great public concern. Our intention is to apply a high-throughput screening approach that will have the sensitivity and statistical power to provide realistic answers to questions concerning the influence of RF-EMF on cellular processes.
