a cancercausing agent and the
time tumors develop - if they do-
may be many, many years. The
interpretation of epidemiological
studies is hampered by
difficulties in measuring actual RF
exposure during day-to-day use
of wireless phones. Many factors
affect this measurement, such as
the angle at which the phone is
held, or which model of phone is
used.
6. What is the FDA doing to
find out more about the
possible health effects of
wireless phone RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S.
National Toxicology Program and
with groups of investigators
around the world to ensure that
high priority animal studies are
conducted to address important
questions about the effects of
exposure to radiofrequency
energy (RF). The FDA has been a
78
leading participant in the World
Health Organization International
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
Project since its inception in
1996 . An influential result of
this work has been the
development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that
has driven the establishment of
new research programs around
the world. The project has also
helped develop a series of public
information documents on EMF
issues. The FDA and the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research and
Development Agreement
(CRADA) to do research on
wireless phone safety. The FDA
provides the scientific oversight,
obtaining input from experts in
government, industry, and
academic organizations. CTIA-
funded research is conducted
through contracts with
