About the Electromagnetic Health Research Institute

Our mission is to advance research and education of Electromagnetic Health.

There are thousands of peer-reviewed research studies demonstrating harm from non-native Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR). We aim to take a different approach. Our research investigates the improvements that are possible when reducing the levels of non-native EMR within homes, schools, businesses, and medical facilities.

We are building a team of scientists, researchers, advocates, Building Biologists, and EMR-safe electricians.

We are dedicated to advancing electromagnetic health sciences through research, education, and practical applications that improve the health of our environments and shape the future of technology.

Every member of our team has been affected by EMR in some way. Many of us have seen or experienced the health improvements that are possible with safer technology. Now, it's time to quantify and validate those findings.

Join us to support the movement for Brighter Technology.

About Our Founder

Melissa Hayes is a research scientist with Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome (EMR-S). She holds a M.S. in Psychology from the Georgia Institute of Technology. As a child, Melissa overcame two traumatic brain injuries. She learned to cope with sensory processing challenges and neurological differences throughout her life.

Melissa has always been drawn to nature, as this is the one place where her senses could rest.

Inspired by her neurological challenges, Melissa developed research to study cognition and memory. She managed federally grant-funded research studies at Georgia Tech, which provided a rigorous training of the scientific method. This skill set became invaluable while healing from unexplained health challenges later in life.

As research has validated, there are many contributing factors for mental and physical well-being that are environmental and within our power to modify. Although we've made progress by creating sensory-friendly and less toxic environments, there is often an invisible missing piece: non-native Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR).

Once Melissa realized this missing piece and reduced her exposures to EMR, her health and vitality returned! Her sensory processing disorder improved, and her chronic health conditions went into remission.

Melissa is now a passionate speaker and advocate for safe technology. She envisions a future that is healthy and brighter for all.
