Interdisciplinary Research of Magnetic Fields and Life Sciences

Magnetic field is a ubiquitous physical field. Humans have long been aware that certain birds can use the Earth's magnetic field to navigate. Indeed, such phenomenon inspired people to explore the biological effects of magnetic field and the underlying mechanism. The man-made ultra-high or ultr...
