This study found no brain wave changes from 15-minute mobile phone radiation exposure using realistic conditions.

Plain English Summary

Summary written for general audiences

Researchers exposed 12 people to mobile phone-like radio frequency radiation for 15 minutes to see if it changed their brain wave patterns (EEG). Unlike some previous studies, they found no changes in brain activity from either pulsed or continuous RF exposure. The researchers used a more realistic exposure setup that better mimicked actual phone use.

Study Details

To study the Comparison of the effects of continuous and pulsed mobile phone like RF exposure on the human EEG

In this fully counterbalanced cross-over design, we recruited 12 participants and tried to replicate...

No changes to alpha power were found for either modulated or unmodulated radiofrequency fields, and ...

Again, no effect was demonstrated for either modulated or unmodulated radiofrequency exposures.
