Research focuses on biological interactions with nonionzing electromagnetic fields, emphasizing exposure conditions below thermal thresholds. The mechanistic basis for these nonthermal interactions is incomplete, but points to highly cooperative and hierarchical organizations at atomic, molecular, and cellular levels. Exponential growth of exposures to these fields throughout life in both western and emergent societies raises questions of potential health hazards.
