Andrew Marino: The Truth About a Life in Science

Andrew Marino, PhD, JD is a retired biophysicist and lawyer specialising in the biological effects of electromagnetic energy. Working closely with Dr. Robert Becker for much of his career, Marino has played a pivotal role in understating the impacts of non-native electromagnetic fields via stress response pathways in animals and humans. His work has raised fundamental questions about the safety of wireless communications technologies, powerlines and the ever-growing number of gadgets we are surrounded by.

He is the author of several books including, ‘Going Somewhere’, which documents the harsh realities of a life in science. His story is poignant and highlights how science can be manipulated and watered down at the whims of those in power with little regard for human safety. His forthcoming book (Winter 2025), ‘Philip Handler: Toxic Pope of Science’ details the long-lasting effects some critical figures have had in shaping what we perceive today as science.
