Science on Health Effects of Cell Phone and Wireless Radiation

A growing body of scientific evidence links cell phone radiofrequency (RF) radiation to a broad range of harmful effects at at legally allowed levels including cancer, memory damage and  impacts on brain development, the endocrine system, thyroid function, reproduction, and DNA/genetic damage ( Panagopoulos et al. 2021, Lai 2021, Smith-Roe et al. 2020, Davis et al 2023, ICBE-EMF 2022, Lai and Levitt 2022, Hardell and Carlberg 2017, Miller et al. 2018, Belpomme et al 2018, Directorate-General for Parliamentary Research Services European Parliament 202, Hardell and Carlberg 2017).

Environmental impacts have also been identified. A landmark three part 2021 research review on effects to wildlife published in Reviews on Environmental Health by U.S experts journalist Blake Levitt, Dr. Henry Lai and former U.S. Fish and Wildlife senior biologist Albert Manville state current science should trigger urgent regulatory action citing more than 1,200 scientific references which found adverse biological effects to wildlife from even very low intensities of non ionizing radiation with findings of  impacts to orientation and migration, reproduction, mating, nest, den building and survivorship. This 150-page report has more than 1,200 references (Levitt et al., 2021a, Levitt et al., 2021bLevitt et al., 2021c).

On this page we have a small sampling of the over 1,000 studies. To read more about 5G and cell towers please go to our 5G research page or cell tower research page.
