Health and safety informationFDA has been a leading participant in the World HealthOrganization International Electromagnetic Fields(EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influentialresult of this work has been the development of adetailed agenda of research needs that has driven theestablishment of new research programs around theworld. The Project has also helped develop a series ofpublic information documents on EMF issues.FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & InternetAssociation (CTIA) have a formal CooperativeResearch and Development Agreement (CRADA) to doresearch on wireless phone safety. FDA provides thescientific oversight, obtaining input from experts ingovernment, industry, and academic organizations.CTIA-funded research is conducted through contractsto independent investigators. The initial research willinclude both laboratory studies and studies of wirelessphone users. The CRADA will also include a broadassessment of additional research needs in thecontext of the latest research developments aroundthe world.5. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure toradio frequency energy from my wireless phone?If there is a risk from these products—and at this pointwe do not know that there is—it is probably verysmall. But if you are concerned about avoiding evenpotential risks, you can take a few simple steps tominimize your exposure to radio frequency energy(RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposurea person receives, reducing the amount of time spentusing a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.If you must conduct extended conversations bywireless phone every day, you could place moredistance between your body and the source of the RF,since the exposure level drops off dramatically withdistance. For example, you could use a headset andcarry the wireless phone away from your body or use awireless phone connected to a remote antennaAgain, the scientific data do not demonstrate thatwireless phones are harmful. But if you are concernedabout the RF exposure from these products, you can
