Abstract

Overview

The abstract discusses the unexpected closure of the U.S. National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) research program on the carcinogenic effects of RF radiation, highlighting the program's role in providing scientific data for health policies.

Findings

  • In 2018, the NTP showed through extensive research involving a $30 million budget that RF radiation from GSM and CDMA-modulated cellphones can cause malignant schwannoma in rats.
  • Statistical analysis from independent studies corroborated these results, demonstrating higher tumor incidence in exposed rats compared to controls.
  • Further studies were planned but never advanced beyond preliminary stages due to technical and resource challenges.

Conclusion

Despite decisive evidence from former studies, the U.S. civilian government's discontinuation of these research efforts casts the general population into an unwitting large-scale health study. Simultaneously, military research on RF radiation continues, hinting at recognized biological effects needing further exploration.
