Abstract
Interaction of electromagnetic fields with biological systems covers wide interdisciplinary area. The paper summarizes part of it, especially efflux of calcium ions from cerebral tissues, rotation of cells in an oscillating field, breakdown of cellular membranes, heating of biological tissues and its potential application in cancer therapy. Some characteristic features of the cell-generated oscillating fields are presented to point out possibility of microwave detection.
