EMF exposure study rules out 'causing' cancer, finds 'association' with leukemia puzzling but real.

THERE IS NO conclusive evidence that exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) at the levels that occur in residences can cause cancer or have adverse neurobehavioral or reproductive and developmental effects. So states a report released at the end of October, Possible Health Effects of Residential Electric and…

Negative Controls That Matter

Independent Voices RF Safe Jan 14, 2026

RF Safe argues that “no effect” findings in some RF exposure studies should be interpreted as meaningful negative controls rather than as evidence that RF has no biological effects. The post presents RF Safe’s “S4–Mito–Spin” framework, claiming certain skin cell types (fibroblasts and keratinocytes) are predicted to…
