Telecommunications health and safety: Potential game changer for mobile-phone radio-frequency radiation carcinogenesis

摘要

Readers of the Radio Science Bulletin may recall my recent article from a couple of issues back, in March, 2016 [1], in which I mentioned an unclassified five-year project: a US government-led health-eff ects research study of two-year (or lifelong, in most cases) exposure of rats and mice to radio-frequency (RF) radiation used for wireless cellular mobile-telephone operations. This project, which began in 2005, is the largest animal cancer study ever undertaken by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), with a budget of $12 million, at the time.
