Fifth generation networks (5G) will be associated with a partial shift to higher carrier frequencies, including wavelengths of insects. This may lead to higher absorption of radio frequency (RF) elect

total of 555 index patients were traced by the drive team, and 10,410 contacts in their household and 5 immediate neighbor houses listed. Among these contacts, 72.0% could be screened while most others were
Estimated all-day and evening whole-brain radiofrequency electromagnetic fields doses, and sleep in preadolescents (Publications)
preadolescents with zero evening whole-brain RF-EMF dose from phone calls [-11.9min (95%CI -21.2; -2.5)]. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest the evening as a potentially relevant window of RF-EMF exposure
Variability of the human serum metabolome over 3 months in the EXPOsOMICS Personal Exposure Monitoring study (Publications)
Our results suggest that the metabolome as measured with untargeted LC-HRMS is fairly stable (ICC > 0.5) over 100 days for more than half of the features monitored in our study, to reflect average levels
