WELCOME
The IT’IS Foundation for Research on Information Technologies in Society and its director Prof. Niels Kuster, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, and the Centro Stefano Franscini welcome you to the magnificent location of Monte Verità, in Ascona, Switzerland, for the 2012 “EMF Health Risk Research: Lessons Learned and Recommendations for the Future” workshop. The registration to this worskhop is now open.
This second workshop on EMF-associated health hazards will serve to review the knowledge gained over the last 7 years, challenge our understanding of the detected effects of EMF on biological processes, discuss possible interaction mechanisms between weak EMF and biological tissues, and evaluate how to best detect them.
In addition to various sessions and discussions on the effects of EMF on biological processes such as cancer, genome stability, cellular communication, or neurogenerative diseases, this year's workshop will also serve as a venue for the members of the SEAWIND and the ARIMMORA projects, two EU-funded FP7 projects dedicated to EMF-related health risks.
This four-day roundtable represents a unique opportunity for researchers and experts to get together in a beautiful and inspiring location and share their ideas and their vision for the field.
We are greately looking forward to welcoming you in Monte Verità!
