The W orld H ealth O rganization's and R adiation and N uclear S afety A uthority's “Workshop on Application of Proteomics and Transcriptomics in Electromagnetic Fields Research” was held in Helsinki in the October/November 2005. As a consequence of this meeting, Proteomics journal published in 2006 a special issue “Application of Proteomics and Transcriptomics in EMF Research” (Vol. 6 No. 17; Guest Editor: D. Leszczynski). This Proteomics issue presented the status of research, of the effects of electromagnetic fields ( EMF ) using proteomics and transcriptomics methods, present in 2005. The current overview/opinion article presents the status of research in this area by reviewing all studies that were published by the end of 2010. The review work was a part of the European Cooperation in the Field of Scientific and Technical Research ( COST ) Action BM 0704 that created a structure in which researchers in the field of EMF and health shared knowledge and information. The review was prepared by the members of the COST Action BM 0704 task group on the high‐throughput screening techniques and electromagnetic fields ( TG ‐ HTST ‐ EMF ).
