Uncovering Electric Field Biotechnology Applications at BioEM 2005, by Robert B. Goldberg, Ph.D., editor, Information Ventures, Inc., Philadelphia, PA

From wound healing to spinal cord restoration, biotechnology research shows great potential for practical use of electric fields for medical advances. Biotechnology research studies were among the many interesting results presented at the recent BioEM 2005 meeting, a joint meeting of the Bioelectromagnetics Society and the European BioElectromagnetics Association, held June 19-24, 2005, at University College, Dublin, Ireland. While it is impossible to adequately describe the range of science discussed in 389 presentations and posters presented at the meeting, a discussion of EMF-based biotechnology and potential clinical applications presented in one special session may give a flavor of how EMF research is progressing. Results from the latest laboratory research and an early clinical study highlight the importance of continued preclinical and clinical studies of EMFs as therapeutic modalities.
