International Cohort Study on Mobile
Phone Users (COSMOS)
The COSMOS study aims to conduct
long-term health monitoring of a large
group of people to determine if there
are any health issues linked to long-term
exposure to radio frequency energy from
cell phone use. The COSMOS study will
follow approximately 300,000 adult cell
phone users in Europe for 20 to 30 years.
Additional information about the COSMOS
study can be found at www.ukcosmos.org/

Important Health and Safety Information
including cell phones and brain cancer
in young people. This is an international
multi-center study involving 14 European
and non-European countries. Additional

Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End
Results (SEER) Program of the National
Cancer Institute
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively
follows cancer statistics in the United
States to detect any change in rates of new
cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play
a role in risk for brain cancer, rates should
go up, because heavy cell phone use has
been common for quite some time in the
U.S. Between 1987 and 2005, the overall
age-adjusted incidence of brain cancer did
not increase.
