📲 Common sources of RF-EMF include mobile phones, laptops, wireless headsets... Understanding our exposure to RF-EMF and its potential impact on our health is crucial. This is where the ETAIN Dose Calculator comes into play. etainwp1portal.uu.nl/dosecalculator…

Eine europäische Studie findet auch: Adaption ist wichtig. Für den Sommer 2023 schätzt die Studie für die 🇨🇭 knapp 300 hitzebedingte Todesfälle. Da sie nur wöchentliche Daten analysierten, werden Spitzentage wohl unterschätzt. SRF Swiss TPH 👇 srf.ch/news/internati…

🆕 paper with contributions from Danielle Vienneau und Kees de Hoogh (Swiss TPH) shows that europe-wide high-spatial resolution air pollution models are improved by including traffic flow estimates on all roads 🚗🏎️🛺🚘🌫️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Interessantes Studiendesign: Vergleich der Biodiversität anhand von Vogelarten in der Grenzregion🇫🇷🇩🇪🇨🇭 bei ähnlicher Landschaft aber unterschiedlichen politischen und soziokulturellen Rahmenbedingungen. Sieht nicht so gut aus für die 🇨🇭.

This correspondence on our review about symptoms and RF-EMF highlights the difference in evidence generation between science (sciencedirect.com/science/articl…) vs. personal experience (sciencedirect.com/science/articl…). The main purpose of a systematic review is to prevent confirmation bias.

Pre-proof out: World Health Organization (WHO) systematic review on cancer from radiofrequency electromagnetic fields. Based on 63 eligible epidemiological papers, we found moderate certainty evidence that use of📱does not cause cancer. Also no risk found for other #RF sources. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Long term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution is linked to a higher risk of infertility in men, whereas road traffic noise is linked to a higher risk of infertility in women over 35, finds a study published by The BMJ today. 🔗 bit.ly/3z3q9Zs

Well deserved best SSPHplus poster award for Axel Luyten from the group of Marloes Eeftens at Swiss TPH for his work on ambient pollen exposure and symptom severity.

This is one of my favorite papers to assign for incoming graduate students. And, re-reading it for this morning's class gave me some reminders I needed myself. ✨ journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/12…
