/The talk is an approximately 45 min presentation, followed by a live 
Q&A session./

/*Abstract*//*:*/
The use of mobile communication and social media has become an integral 
part of today's society. The steadily increasing volume of data leads to 
changes in the information transmission, which is achieved less by a 
higher dose of electromagnetic irradiation than by a changing the signal 
structure and its transmission on other, more suitable frequencies. 
Under various buzzwords like "intelligent household appliances", 
"internet of things or "industry 4.0", wireless communication is being 
integrated into other areas of everyday life and offers a new, more 
convenient alternative to use data. Anyway, since various modern 
innovations (e.g. x-rays) which were greeted enthusiastically by the 
public have later-on lead to negative consequence on health, the 
widespread use on electromagnetic signals has always been under close 
scrutiny. In this talk, several known and suspected effects of 
electromagnetic fields on biological systems will be presented and 
discussed, including an explanation of the physical laws that the 
effects are based on.

/*Bio*//*:*/
Lars Ole Fichte finished his PhD on solving low frequency eddy current 
problems with a semi-analytical method combining separation and boundary 
integral methods in 2007 and has been working as a researcher at Helmut 
Schmidt University since. His research interest include (but are not 
limited to) precise measurement of electromagnetic fields in EMC test 
setups, primarily Reverberation chambers, statistical investigations on 
EMC field tests and the interaction of RF range fields with biological 
tissue. He is the Chairman of German URSI commission K, a senior member 
of EMC society, and works with various standardization committee, such 
as IEC SC77.
