If anyone is interested in the subject of EMF and biology, including its
effect on sleep, etc. they can find a thousand or so scientific research
abstracts at my electric-words site, now held by EMFacts.

The specific sleep study and general EEG material is at
<http://electricwords.emfacts.com/index-EEG.html>
However, be wary about jumping to too many conclusions. EEG variations rely
on interpretation and the results are very variable. This type of EMF
research is notorious for the flood of quick-and-dirty research reports
churned out by PhDs wanting a quick credit. They often use only a dozen or
so students as subjects, and claim to find all sorts of
attention/non-attention, headache/ear warmth & etc. effects
The value of having access to an EEG for a scientist is that he can produce
a cite-able report paper in an afternoon's work at zero cost.
The team led by Neils Kuster at the Uni of Zurich, however, is one of the
better ones.
