Mobile phones and brain cancer

Whether or not cell phones are linked to the development of brain tumours continues to be a hotly debated topic but this really boils down to which scientific reports you read, those funded by the mobile phone industry (which report that mobile phones protect against brain tumours) or those that have been independently funded (which report an increased risk for brain tumour in mobile phone users). As was the case for tobacco it may be that industry funded science is being used to delay action against the potential danger of mobile phones (1).
