I think this is the study on rats sanguy is referring to:
https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/results/areas/cellphones/ https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/results/areas/cellphones/
The American Cancer Society called it a "paradigm shift" in our understanding of the effects of non-ionizing radiation, FWIW.
- torgoguys 9y agoThe results are rushed partial results, yes with peer review, but probably spurious, as noted by at least one of the reviewers. The reviewers didn't have benefit of well organized data either, muddying their process. In fact, if you look at the various studied rat groups, and take the reported results at face value, you would note that the male rats exposed to the most cell phone radiation had the longest lifespan, greater than the controls (which had curiously low survival rates compared to the norm in lab rats too, btw, further muddying the findings). Not a junky study exactly, but the analysis of the data is problematic.
- oculusthrift 9y agothen can we at least wait until further research is done?
- sanguy 9y agoYes, that's the link. Sorry I didn't link it in my original post. It does paint a pretty direct link, even if the results have been rushed.
