Abstract:

Biological Effects of Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation is a publication researched and prepared by the Franklin Research Center, Science Information Services Organization, under contract with the U.S. Navy and administered by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. This digest serves as a vehicle through which current documentation of research highlights on the biological effects and health Implications of nonionizing electromagnetic radiation (microwave and radiofrequency radiation) are compiled, condensed, and disseminated on a regular basis.

Biological Effects of Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation is intended to be a highly useful current awareness tool for scientists engaged in research or related activities. The great number and diversity of relevant publications make imperative the availability of this service to persons whose work requires that they keep abreast of current developments in the field.

Biological Effects of Nonionizing Electromagnetic Radiation is published quarterly.
