1.6. Mechanisms of action of low-frequency magnetic fields in the development of ALS in cell cultures (in vitro)

If current epidemiological studies as well as the planned meta-analysis (Research project 1.1) and the currently ongoing pooled analysis (Research project 1.2) confirm the correlation between low-frequency magnetic fields and ALS, the endpoints to be investigated and suitable cell lines will be selected based on the results of the workshop (Research project 1.3). Laboratory studies will be conducted using these cells (or sample material from the in vivo studies) involving exposure to low-frequency magnetic fields.
