The Collaborative on Health and the Environment (CHE) gives this info. Salford et al. document serious neuronal damage in rat brains following exposure to microwave radiation from a cell phone, at levels comparable to what people would experience during normal use. Damage to nerve cells was observed in several places within the brain, including the cortex, hippocampus and basal ganglia. It was associated with evidence of leakage of proteins through the blood-brain barrier. The authors express concern that %u201Cafter some decades of (often) daily use, a whole generation of [cell phone] users may suffer negative effects, perhaps as early as middle age.%u201D
