Mr. Muralidharan Raghavan

Laws of Electrodynamics is @ 159 years and is the most significant discovery of the 19th century, formulated by James Clerk Maxwell. The talk will share history starting with M Faraday and also touch upon physical nature of em waves, the CMB - the first radiation in the Universe, first demonstration of em waves propagation by JC Bose in 1895 etc.

EM is ubiquitous being used in radio communication and cell phones made it most popular.

EM waves have been used in medical diagnostics and for inspection in industry. Of Late, it is being used in therapy eg. is PEMF.

AI is getting infused in em applications to fine tune it in real time to the right parameters. Agentic AI ensures autonomous workflows in real time enhancing the application of EM for humanity. AI enabled em therapy can provide bespoke solutions to individuals.
