Do mobile phones really fry your brain? The British government and the mobile
phone industry are funding 15 research projects to find out. Most studies
suggest that radio-frequency emissions from mobile phones do not damage people’s
health. Those that do show an effect have proved difficult to reproduce. The new
studies, which will be conducted at British universities, will look for possible
links between mobile phone use and different types of cancer, as well as effects
on basic brain functions and body tissues. Coordinators of the experiments,
which will be performed on human volunteers, may withhold early results so that
they can publish all the findings at the same time.
