This article summarizes expert presentations and a panel discussion on radiological protection systems for ionizing and non-ionizing radiation at an international congress. It highlights that ionizing radiation protection is mature and continually revised, while non-ionizing radiation protection lacks a comparable international framework. The authors emphasize that emerging non-ionizing technologies create complex exposure scenarios and unresolved concerns about chronic and acute exposures, calling for a more cohesive and protective framework.

This paper presents a case study proposing a Planetary Health Impact Assessment (PHIA) framework for RF-EMF exposure from mobile telecommunication technologies using knowledge graphs. Twelve experts co-developed knowledge graphs to visualize potential direct effects on organisms and indirect effects on humans via ecosystem disruption, while an AI/NLP tool was used to extract and visualize literature with required expert validation. The authors highlight substantial evidence gaps on ecological impacts (e.g., pollinators, birds, plants) and emphasize the possibility of indirect health risks mediated through ecosystems.

This narrative review explores potential links between EMF exposure, metallic or mixed-metal dental restorations, and reported systemic and neurological symptoms despite normal diagnostic findings. It discusses hypothesized quantum-biological mechanisms (including spin dynamics and radical-pair mechanisms) that could mediate interactions between EMFs and dental metals. The authors conclude that the complexity of these interactions warrants more rigorous research and emphasize that a possible health-risk link should not be ignored.

This review discusses the rapid deployment of 5G and the associated debate about potential human health impacts from EMF exposure, particularly at 3.5–26 GHz including millimeter waves. It emphasizes limited published studies in these exposure ranges and highlights EU-funded initiatives and research consortia aimed at closing knowledge gaps. The authors state that guidelines are generally considered adequate at present, but argue that uncertainties—especially regarding long-term exposure—support continued research and precautionary approaches.

This review describes public concerns and scientific reports of non-thermal biological effects from low-intensity ELF and RF exposures. It lists multiple health endpoints reported to be associated with ELF and/or RF and highlights the BioInitiative Report’s conclusion that a reasonable suspicion of risk exists at environmentally relevant levels. The authors argue that existing public exposure standards should be lowered and that mobile phone SAR guidelines should be revised based on biology and long-term risk claims.
