The conference BioEM 2019, which took place in\nMontpellier, France, covered various topics of bioelectromagnetics research.\nThe presentations were focused on the mechanisms, effects, regulations and\nmedical applications of electromagnetic field, including hyperthermic medical\ntechnologies, which is the main research objective of MyWAVE COST action\nCA17115. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the conference Dr. Martin Bereta<\/strong> (Institute of Measurement\nScience,Slovak Academy of Sciences) presented the work: \u201eMonitoring of low frequency magnetic and pulsed electric field\nbiological effects on yeast cells using biological autoluminescence<\/em>\u201c.\nFirst, he introduced the phenomenon of biological autoluminescence (BAL),\nwhich is an externally detectable manifestation of metabolic activity of living\ncells and could serve as a useful tool for monitoring of electromagnetic field\nbiological effects. Then he presented the results of monitoring BAL during\nexposure of cells to low frequency magnetic field and pulsed electric field\n(PEF) effects on cells. The results indicate the differences in BAL dynamics\nfrom PEF treated sample, which could be accompanied with the changes in\ndielectric properties of cell samples. The BAL could serve as an additional\nmethod to direct dielectric measurement, hence it could be perspectival used\nduring hyperthermia treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During\nthe conference he attended several interesting sessions, related to the topic\nof MyWave COST action, such as \u201cCellular\neffects of radiofrequency fields and millimetre waves<\/em>\u201d or \u201eEffects of electromagnetic fields (in-vivo<\/em>)<\/em>\u201c. There were also several\nvery interesting plenary lectures discussing potential of millimetre and submillimetre\nwave applications in medicine, the risk of human exposure to 5G-networks, or\nthe body temperature regulation in mammals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During his poster presentation\nhe had an opportunity to discuss his results with several experts in the field,\nmainly with prof. F.S. Barnes (U.S.) and Dr. L. Mir (France) and to get\nfeedback to his work. They both were interested in his results and gave him\nsome suggestions and hints how to continue in his future work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The attendance at the\nconference was made possible through the funding of the MyWAVE COST action CA\n17115. His participation was a great opportunity to get\nin contact with the current trends in bioelectromagnetics research and to get\nto know the experts from this field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The conference BioEM 2019, which took place in Montpellier, France, covered various topics of bioelectromagnetics research.
