Acoustic neuroma:
Acoustic neuroma or Vestibular Schwannoma is a rare benign tumour in the eighth cranial nerve that leads from the inner ear to the brain. It grows slowly and does not undergo malignant transformation, but may give compression of vital brain stem centres. Tinnitus and hearing problems are usual first symptoms of acoustic neuroma. We published a clear, statistically significant, association between use of mobile and cordless phones and acoustic neuroma. The risk increased with time since first use. For use of both mobile and cordless phones the risk was highest in the longest latency group. Tumour volume increased per 100 hours of cumulative use and year of latency for wireless phones indicating tumour progression from RF-EMF. The whole study can be read here:

Pooled analysis of case-control studies on acoustic neuroma diagnosed 1997-2003 and 2007-2009 and use of mobile and cordless phones
We previously conducted a case-control study of acoustic neuroma. Subjects of both genders aged 20-80 years, diagnosed during 1997-2003 in parts of Sweden, were included, and the results were published. We have since made a further study for the time period…
Nanotechnology is enabling the development of novel devices which are able to generate,process and transmit multimedia content at the nanoscale. The interconnection of pervasively deployed multimedia nano-devices with existing communication networks and ultimately the Internet defines a novel communication paradigm that is further referred to as the Internet of Multimedia Nano-Things (IoMNT). The IoMNT is a truly cyber–physical system with a plethora of applications in the biomedical, security anddefense,environmental and industrial fields,amongst others.This paper discusses the state of the art and major research challenges in the realization of the IoMNT. Fundamental research challenges and future research trends are outlined in terms of multimedia data and signal processing, propagation modeling for communication amongst nano-things in the terahertz band, physical layer solutions for terahertz band communication and protocols for the IoMNT. These include novel medium access control techniques,addressing schemes, neighbor discovery and routing mechanisms, a novel QoS-aware cross-layer communication module, and novel security solutions for the IoMNT.

THE INTERNET OF BIO-NANO-THINGS -
2015 - The Internet of Things (IoT) has become an important research topic in the last decade, where things refer to interconnected machines and objects with embedded computing capabilities employed to extend the Internet to many application domains. While research and devel-opment continue for general IoT devices, there are many application domains where very tiny,concealable, and non-intrusive Things are needed. The properties of recently studied nanomaterials, such as graphene, have inspired the concept of Internet of NanoThings (IoNT), based on the intercon-nection of nanoscale devices. Despite being an enabler for many applications, the artificial nature of IoNT devices can be detrimental where the deployment of Nano Things could result in unwanted effects on health or pollution.
The novel paradigm of the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT) is introduced in this paper by stemming from synthetic biology and nanotechnology tools that allow the engineering of biological embedded computing devices. Based on biological cells, and their functionalities in the biochemical domain, Bio-Nano Things promise to enable applications such as intra-body sensing and actuation networks, and environmental control of toxic agents and pollution. The IoBNT stands as a paradigm-shifting concept for communication and network engineering, where novel challenges are faced to develop efficient and safe techniques for the exchange of information, interaction, and networking within the biochemical domain, while enabling an interface to the electrical domain of the Internet.

Internet of Bodies
The Internet of Bodies, or IoB, is actually an ecosystem. It's a bunch of devices that are connected to the Internet that contain software and that either collect personal health data about you or can alter the body's function. We think of the Internet of Bodies as this collection of all these devices, as well as all the data that the devices are gathering about you. And in health care, Internet of Bodies has been around for quite a while. With the advent of the Internet, it makes a lot of sense to connect your pacemaker to the Internet so that your doctor can be automatically notified if something weird happens, if there's an anomaly. It's natural in a lot of ways to want to understand more about your body, how it functions, how well it's doing.
Consumers should be wary of IoB devices because, as it's becoming more and more popular, all of this intimate data is being collected, arguably more intimate data than we've ever really recorded before. There's no clarity on what is being done with that data. You know, with an old mechanical pacemaker, there's no data that was being collected and stored, and, you know, you could look at a history of someone's heart rhythms.
Because policy tends to lag behind innovative technologies like this, it's probably up to the consumers and to the health care patients to really be aware of the devices that they're using and what is happening to their data and to know what the regulations are in their particular state, because it does vary so much state by state. Even if you think you're not interesting or that nothing will happen with your data, there are a lot of unknowns that I think we need to be careful about.

A Review on Bio-Cyber Interfaces for Intrabody Molecular Communications Systems
The recent advancements in bio-engineering and wireless communications systems have motivated researchers to propose novel applications for telemedicine, therapeutics and human health monitoring. For instance, through wireless medical telemetry a healthcare worker can remotely measure biological signals and control certain processes in the organism required for the maintenance of the patient’s health state. This technology can be further extended to use Bio-Nano devices to promote a real-time monitoring of the human health and storage of the gathered data in the cloud. This brings new challenges and opportunities for the development of biosensing network, which will depend on the extension of the current intrabody devices functionalities. In this paper we will cover the recent progress made on implantable micro-scale devices and introduce the perspective of improve them to foster the development of new theranostics based on data collected at the nanoscale level.

IoB Security Risks
IoB devices can be prone to the same security flaws of IoT devices, or any other technology that stores information in the cloud. But, given the nature of IoB devices and the data they collect, the stakes are particularly high. Vulnerabilities could allow unauthorized parties to leak private information, tamper with data, or lock users out of their accounts.
In the case of some implanted medical devices, hackers could potentially manipulate the devices to cause physical injury or even death. - https://www.rand.org/blog/articles/2020/10/the-internet-of-bodies-will-change-everything-for-better-or-worse.html

Reliance on Data
The technologies and applications featuring biodigital convergence will not be able to operate without a lot of data. For example, the field of bioinformatics uses digital tools and data analysis to understand biological systems,59 including deploying deep learning algorithms to analyze images of cells to detect patterns that humans would find impossible to discern.60 Techniques such as next-generation gene sequencing are hugely data intense, creating new challenges with sharing, archiving, integrating, and analyzing this data.
The global bioinformatics market is projected to grow from 7.73 billion USD in 2018 to 13.50 billion USD in 2023, at a compound annual growth rate of 14.5%.62 The rate of data growth to fuel this expansion could exceed this.
The data required is highly varied. Upstream of the production processes, data may also be an important asset in the form of genomes, phenotypes, and environmental contexts of a diverse set of humans and a wide range of unique organisms. Bioprospecting is already an important aspect of drug development, and may rise in importance – and provoke greater controversy in healthcare.
The full potential of biodigital convergence may therefore require a constant flow of data. Capturing, managing, sharing, and governing this data could become a resource-intensive process and a more highly developed industry in itself.

Energy is the crux of economic growth and development; therefore, a reliable supply of power is a critical prerequisite for the successful operation of smart city initiatives.
The impact of the energy crisis on smart cities, which are still recovering from the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic, has been far-reaching and is having major consequences for businesses, households, and individuals – thereby affecting everyone.
Smart cities are complex and interconnected because they are composed of various sectors, ranging from the manufacturing industry, education, healthcare, transport and the business sector.
Since the start of load-shedding many businesses that were attracted to the cities because of well-functioning smarter infrastructure that lowers operating costs, have had to close or down-scale their employee numbers. In Johannesburg, a Wimpy franchise that has been operating in the Fordsburg area for over five decades has had to permanently close down due to persistent power cuts.
In a conversation with News24, the franchise owner Mr. Ebrahim says, “load-shedding has broken our back, people avoid areas where there is load-shedding or reschedule their day according to the load-shedding schedule, such measures draw business away.”

Molecular Communications
In a molecular communications system, information is produced, propagated and received by cell-based nanoscale devices [5]. For example, cells can produce proteins and nucleic acids, i.e. molecular information, and freely diffuse or transport them by exosomes (small membrane vesicles of endocytic origin) for the stimulation of cellular immune responses in vivo
Due to the diversity of natural systems that can inspire the design of these molecular communications systems, different natural cellular signalling processes have been investigated in the past twenty years, such as action potential and quorum sensing, and the characteristics of those natural systems define the requirements for the nanonetwork architecture [7]. Therefore, nanoscale devices, that are specific for each system, are built to encode and transmit molecular signal through a communications channel(e.g. fluid media) towards a nanoscale receiver that will retrieve the original molecular information. To encode a molecular information, scientists can change the structure of the molecule, the gene sequence information or the concentration of information in the propagated molecular signal. At the receiver side, the molecular signal is decoded resulting on the extraction of the original information produced by the nanoscale transmitter[8, 9]. These processes are representations of the chemical reactions required to produce, propagate and receive molecular signals within a nanonetwork.

Converging Technologies for Improving Human Performance (2002)
NANOTECHNOLOGY, BIOTECHNOLOGY, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND COGNITIVE SCIENCE
The phrase “convergent technologies” refers to the synergistic combination of four major “NBIC” (nano-bio-info-cogno) provinces of science and technology, each of which is currently progressing at a rapid rate: (a) nanoscience and nanotechnology; (b) biotechnology and biomedicine, including genetic engineering;
(c) information technology, including advanced computing and communications;
and (d) cognitive science, including cognitive neuroscience.
Each of the four research challenges described above focuses on one of the NBIC areas (nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology, and cognitive science) and shows how progress can be catalyzed by convergence with the other areas. The complementarity of the four NBIC areas is suggested by the statement of workshop participant W.A. Wallace:
"If the Cognitive Scientists can think it
the Nano people can build it
the Bio people can implement it, and
the IT people can monitor and control it"
