“However, this study does not take into account the layers of skin, fat, muscle and skull containing the brain in a realistic head model” Higher frequency radiation will be absorbed by the skin more easily and I think it will not reach the brain.

They reached the brain. [1] [1]: https://kops.uni-konstanz.de/bitstream/handle/123456789/10595/Eulitz_handy_98.pdf https://kops.uni-konstanz.de/bitstream/handle/123456789/1059...

  That study refers to GSM phones, though, which use a much lower frequency that's a lot better at penetrating things like walls and people's skulls.

    Gamma radiation in-vivo cells have been shown to produce "a reduction in cell division; alteration in the ratio of the different phases of mitosis, and the appearance of degenerate cells in the germinative zone." [1] Also Le Pogam et al. [2019] found that "EM radiation in the 5G range affect cell permeability and metabolic profiles". [2] To me, that's not something to be discarded so easily, more research is needed. But there's already good one coming up.
