BIOELECTROMAGNETICS VOLUME 30, ISSUE #5 (JULY 2009) NOW ONLINE Radio frequency magnetic field effects on iron release from cage proteins; Weak combined static and extremely low-frequency alternating magnetic fields on tumor growth in mice; Narrow band millimeter-wave interactions with stress sensor genes; Electronic device for accelerating bone formation in tissues; UMTS exposure has no effect on function of rat outer hair cells; Electromuscular incapacitation from stimulation of spinal reflexes; Puzzle of magnetic resonance effect on the magnetic compass of migratory birds; and Radiation from mobile phone systems: Is it perceived as a threat to people's health? are just some of the research studies reported in the July issue of Bioelectromagnetics. Take a peek inside. http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/34135/home SUBMIT YOUR NEXT PAPER TO Bioelectromagnetics. A journal that combines the best research in electromagnetics in biology and medicine with a unique mix of articles dedicated to the discipline of bioelectromagnetics. Bioelectromagnetics covers the entire spectrum of nonionizing radiation research and is essential reading for biological scientists, engineers, medical doctors, physicists, and public health specialists in academia, government, and industry. The journal is open to a broad range of topics whose central theme falls within the interaction and application of electromagnetic fields in biological systems, spanning static fields to terahertz waves. Authors are encouraged to submit their latest work via the online submission system. https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/bem?next_page=login¤t_role_id=1&config_id=1518 VIEW THE GUIDE FOR AUTHORS. http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/34135/home/ForAuthors.html Editor-in-Chief: James C.
