Yale 2024 Symposium
Live in New Haven, Connecticut | June 4-6, 2024
Speakers May Attend Via Zoom
Purpose
A multi-disciplinary consortium of scientists, doctors, and related professionals is dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge, fostering collaboration, and influencing policy decisions focused on the biological and health effects of electromagnetic frequencies at currently allowed levels.
Building on the legacy of expert forums initiated over the past few years by EHT with support from the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, private foundations, and the Universities of Ariel and Tel Aviv, this symposium marks the next crucial step in evaluating the impact of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on living organisms.
Leaders in advancing this fundamental change will come together to exchange their latest findings as well as work in progress on the science, including: in vitro, in vivo, clinical and epidemiological observations, and wildlife studies.
Papers from the conference will be prepared for a special issue of the journal Frontiers in Public Health.
3 Days | World-Class Speakers
