The study or phenomenon of magnetic fields produced by living organisms, or the interaction between living systems and magnetic fields.
From bio- + magnetism (from magnet). Emerged as a scientific field in the mid-20th century when researchers developed instruments sensitive enough to measure biological magnetic effects.
Your brain and heart generate tiny magnetic fields that doctors can measure without touching you using a special machine called a magnetoencephalograph—your biology is literally magnetic!
