Rodney J. Croft

Rodney J. Croft received degrees in philosophy and psychology, and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Wollongong, Australia, in 2000, where he developed methods for accounting for ocular artefact in the electroencephalograph. He then worked in the area of cognitive neuroscience as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Imperial College, London, and Swinburne University, Australia. He is currently a Professor of health psychology with the School of Psychology, University of Wollongong. His current research interests focus on the delineation of human brain function, particularly as it relates to agents that might affect it (e.g., electromagnetic fields, illicit, and medicinal drugs), as well as psychiatry more generally. He has been involved in research on extremely low frequency and radio frequency (RF) non-ionising radiation since 2000, primarily utilizing the electroencephalogram as a means of observing subtle alterations in brain function, but his research also encompasses epidemiological investigations of RF-cognition relations, RF-sleep research and RF-induced cell permeation, as well as radiation risk perception and communication more generally. Dr. Croft is a Commissioner with the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). He chairs the ICNIRP revision of its upcoming RF guidelines. He was the Director of the Australian Centre for RF Bioeffects Research from 2004 to 2011 and the Australian Centre for Electromagnetic Bioeffects Research from 2013 to 2018.
