"High-power microwave applications are growing for both military and civil purposes, yet they can induce brain-related risks and raise important public health concerns. High-power sub-millisecond radio frequency energy pulses have been demonstrated to be able to induce neurological and neuropathological changes in the brain while being compliant with current regulatory guidelines’ limits, highlighting the necessity of revising them."

"The brain, due to its electrical nature, has long been considered the most vulnerable organ to exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy waves. It is well established that RF energy can cause heating of the biological tissue, such as the brain, and consequently affect its function (as it is established that local increase in brain temperature affects ongoing neural activity [3]). There has been, however, a long-lasting question whether RF energy is able to affect neuronal activity and brain function in a non-thermal manner. This question has been at the center of a controversial debate where theories and experiments both in favor and against such possibility have been reported over several decades [4]."
