About the Science

The science on EMF health effects is clear-but it's buried in thousands of peer-reviewed papers scattered across academic journals. Most people will never read a single one.

That's a problem. Because these studies tell a story that contradicts the official narrative. They show biological effects at exposure levels far below what regulators say is safe. They document DNA damage, neurological effects, reproductive harm, and more-from the same wireless radiation we're all exposed to every day.

I built this database to make that research accessible. Not simplified or dumbed down-accessible. Every study here is the real thing: peer-reviewed, published in scientific journals, reviewed by expert scientists from the BioInitiative Report.

This is the science they don't want you to see. Now you can see it for yourself.

Every study in this database comes from the bibliography of the BioInitiative Report-an independent scientific review compiled by a team of expert researchers who have spent their careers studying EMF health effects.

The BioInitiative Working Group includes scientists from major universities around the world, including Columbia University, University of Washington, Karolinska Institute, and more. These aren't activists or amateurs-they're published researchers with decades of experience in bioelectromagnetics, cellular biology, and epidemiology. Meet the 29 scientists who contributed to this report.

The Report was first published in 2007 and updated in 2012. It reviewed over 3,800 studies and concluded that current safety standards are inadequate to protect public health. The studies in this database are the foundation of that conclusion.

I'm R Blank, CEO of Shield Your Body and the curator of this database. I've spent years working alongside my father and other EMF researchers, translating complex science into practical knowledge.

I hold an MBA and taught digital communications at USC's Viterbi School of Engineering. But my real education came from growing up around my father's research-dinner table conversations about stress proteins, DNA damage, and why the government's safety standards were decades out of date.

This database is my contribution to continuing that work. It takes the same research my father spent his career on and puts it in your hands-searchable, filterable, and explained in plain English.

Source: All studies come from the BioInitiative Report bibliography, compiled by expert scientists specializing in bioelectromagnetics research.

Selection criteria: Studies must be peer-reviewed and published in scientific journals. The BioInitiative scientists selected studies based on scientific merit, not to confirm any particular conclusion.

Study classification: Studies are organized by the type of data they provide:

• Studies with exposure data: 1,485 studies with quantified exposure levels. These can be used with the interactive tool to find research at your exposure level.
• Studies with bioeffects only: 1,247 studies documenting biological effects without specific exposure data.
• Null result studies: 781 studies that found no bioeffects. Yes, we include null results - that's how honest science works.

AI-assisted summaries: Each study includes a plain-English summary and editorial commentary, generated with AI assistance and based on voice profiles from my published books. The underlying data-titles, authors, citations, and exposure levels-comes directly from the source material.
