The U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) is set to host a pivotal conference on cancer bioelectricity on September 12th, bringing together leading experts to explore the electrical dimensions of cancer. The event will feature Michael Levin, a renowned professor of biology and biomedical engineering at Tufts University, as the keynote speaker. The conference will be conducted via Zoom and is open to all, free of charge, though registration is required.
Why This Conference Matters
The upcoming conference is not just another scientific gathering; it represents a potential turning point in our understanding of cancer’s root causes. Bioelectricity, the electrical signals that regulate many of our body’s life functions, plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular harmony. When these electrical properties are disrupted, it can lead to carcinogenic processes, including tumor initiation, promotion, and progression. Levin’s work has provided compelling evidence that manipulating bioelectric signals can influence gene expression and potentially offer new avenues for cancer treatment and prevention.
In her book We Are Electric, Sally Adee highlights Levin’s groundbreaking research, suggesting that bioelectricity could be the key to unlocking new methods of controlling complex biological systems. Levin’s keynote at the NCI conference is expected to delve deep into these ideas, potentially reshaping how we approach cancer detection, diagnosis, and therapy.
The Urgent Need to Reevaluate FCC Safety Guidelines
As we gain a deeper understanding of bioelectricity’s role in cancer, it becomes increasingly clear that current safety guidelines for wireless radiation are outdated and inadequate. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) still relies on safety standards set in 1996, long before the widespread adoption of wireless technology and the rise in chronic diseases linked to electromagnetic fields (EMFs). These guidelines focus solely on the thermal effects of radiation, ignoring the non-thermal impacts on bioelectric systems that could lead to cancer and other health issues.
Under the Biden-Harris administration, the National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) critical research on wireless radiation and cancer was halted, leaving a significant gap in our understanding of how EMFs affect bioelectricity and, consequently, human health. The NCI’s focus on cancer bioelectricity highlights the need to restart this research and update FCC guidelines to protect public health, particularly the health of our children, who are most vulnerable to these environmental hazards.
The Role of Entropic Waste and Bioelectric Dissonance
Entropic waste from wireless technology, such as Wi-Fi and cell towers, has been largely overlooked as a potential cause of bioelectric dissonance—a state where the natural electrical harmony within our bodies is disrupted. This dissonance can lead to a breakdown in cellular communication, fostering an environment where cancerous cells can thrive.
The FDA and FCC, captured agencies influenced by industry interests, have failed to address these concerns adequately. They continue to ignore the mounting evidence linking EMF exposure to bioelectric disruption and the subsequent risk of cancer. This negligence is not just a bureaucratic oversight; it is a direct threat to public health.
A Call to Action
The upcoming NCI conference is a critical moment for the scientific community and policymakers alike. It is a call to action to reevaluate our current safety standards and prioritize the health of our citizens over industry profits. We must push for the immediate reinstatement of NTP’s research into wireless radiation and cancer, and for the FCC to update its safety guidelines to reflect the latest scientific understanding of bioelectricity and its role in cancer.
The health of future generations depends on our ability to address these issues now. As more research comes to light, the connection between bioelectricity and cancer will become increasingly undeniable. It is imperative that we act swiftly to mitigate the risks posed by EMFs and protect our children from the dangers of entropic waste.
Stay informed, stay vigilant, and demand action. The future of cancer prevention and public health depends on it.
