• Phase 3


 

Dans la Phase 3 (2011-2015), les seuils de des réponses aiguës systématiques chez l'humain exposé à un champ magnétique pouvant atteindre 50 mT aux fréquences domestiques (50 et 60 Hz) ont fait l'objet d'une large étude menée sur des volontaires. Ce projet s'intéresse plus particulièrement à des marqueurs neurophysiologiques tels que la perception de magnétophosphènes et les réponses éléctroencéphalographiques (EEG).
