Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
Section 13
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.
What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible 
health effects of wireless phone RF?
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 radio frequency energy (RF).
FDA has been a 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.
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications & Internet 
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research 
and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research 
on wireless phone safety.  FDA provides the scientific 
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, 
industry, and academic organizations.  CTIA-funded 
research is conducted through contracts to independent 
investigators.  The initial research will include both 
laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users.  
The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of 
additional research needs in the context of the latest 
research developments around the world.
