Prof. Selim Şeker’s Work Published by Cambridge University Press

The work titled “Modeling Electromagnetic Exposure in Human Bodies,” co-edited by Prof. Selim Şeker, Head of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (English) Department at Üsküdar University's Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, with Fulya Çallıalp, has been released to readers by Cambridge University Press. The book, which addresses the effects of electromagnetic waves on the human body with advanced modeling techniques, stands out as an important scientific resource, especially at a time when 5G technologies have re-emerged on the agenda.

The work edited by Prof. Selim Şeker, Head of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (English) Department at Üsküdar University's Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, offers a scientific perspective on current discussions regarding 5G technologies and human health. 

The book offers a comprehensive look at modeling electromagnetic exposure

Today, electromagnetic waves, which form the basis of many technologies from mobile phones to wireless communication systems, are also at the focus of research concerning their effects on health. 

The work published by Cambridge University Press evaluates the biological effects of radio frequency (RF) and millimeter waves in human tissues in light of scientific data, while offering a comprehensive look at modeling electromagnetic exposure.

Temperature distribution in human tissues is examined with advanced simulations

The book analyzes the specific absorption rate (SAR), biological heat transfer, and temperature changes caused by electromagnetic energy in the human body through detailed simulations. By studying different body regions such as the ear, eyes, mouth, breast, and arm, potential health risks are evaluated, and important information is provided for researchers and practitioners in radio frequency safety.

The work also addresses the effects of different ground types on radio coverage, providing technical assessments for experts working in the field of communication engineering. Thus, the book serves as a guide not only for researchers in the health field but also for professionals working in the telecommunications sector and regulatory bodies.

It bridges the gap between scientific studies and real-life applications

The study, which centers on advanced modeling methods, brings together theoretical knowledge on electromagnetic exposure and biological effects with real-life applications. The work, which also includes evaluations on biomedical applications such as cancer treatment with hyperthermia, aims to contribute scientifically to current discussions at the intersection of technology and human health.

Opportunities and potential risks of 5G technology are evaluated together

Prof. Selim Şeker's work in electromagnetic technologies is not limited to this. His previous work titled “5G: Internet of Things and Our Health,” published by Hayy Kitap and attracting considerable interest from readers, also addresses the opportunities offered by 5G technology and the health discussions that arise with it from a scientific perspective.

The newly published “Modeling Electromagnetic Exposure in Human Bodies,” on the other hand, advances academic work in this field by bringing current research on modeling electromagnetic exposure to the international literature. The book serves as an important reference for researchers, engineers, health professionals, and policymakers who need scientific information regarding the safe use of 5G and next-generation communication technologies.
