Since the introduction of radar in the 1940s, there have been thousands of scientific studies on the effects of microwave radiation (EMF) on human beings. The Oceania Radiofrequency Scientific Advisory Association (ORSAA) reviewed EMF research conducted over the past twenty years and reported that 68% of published studies showed harm to living organisms-- either human, animal, avian, insect or plant.
Here are some of the most significant peer-reviewed studies in recent years, observing a rigorous application of the scientific method:

In research, when the findings of animal studies are repeated time and time again, we should take note. On the specific issue of cancer, all major animal studies confirm the carcinogenic action of microwave radiation.
Microwave radiation was classified as a Group 2 possible carcinogen (cancer-causing agent) in 2011.
Published in 2013, this paper made the case that microwave radiation should be reclassified as a probable carcinogen (Group 2A): Swedish review strengthens grounds for concluding that radiation from cellular and cordless phones is a probable human carcinogen.
This report relates to World Health Organization advisor, Anthony B. Miller M.D., stating that new research shows the microwave radiation should be re-classified as a proven carcinogen: https://www.emfacts.com/2017/08/cancer-expert-declares-cell-phone-and-wireless-radiation-as-carcinogenic-to-humans/

This study shows increased cancer risks for people living close to cellular phone infrastructure – and the levels of radiation associated with increased cancer risk are legal in New Zealand: https://www.avaate.org/IMG/pdf/ESTUDIO_BRASIL_BrazilCellTowerStudy.pdf“
Game-Changing” Study Links Cellphone Radiation to Cancer: An increased incidence of brain and heart tumors was seen in rats. Mother Jones. http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2016/05/federal-study-links-cell-phone-radiation-cancer
The National Toxicology Program (NTP) Chronic Carcinogenicity Studies of Cell Phone Radiofrequency Radiation are the most comprehensive, carefully done research performed to date on the long-term effects of radio frequency radiation from wireless devices such as cell phones. This 10-year, $25 million dollar study by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, was completed and peer reviewed March 26-28, 2018, in North Carolina. The animal research looked at long term, non-thermal exposure to radio frequency (RF) cell phone radiation. The series of studies demonstrated positive findings (adverse effects) as follows:
There were increases in tumors in several other organs, including pituitary gland, thyroid, pancreas, skin and liver compared to controls. In some groups no tumors were seen in the sham control animals (malignant schwannomas of the heart, glial cell hyperplasia of the brain, malignant gliomas of the brain, hepatocellular adenomas or carcinomas in male rats) and in others the sham controls had lower incidences of cancer than historical controls. Although increases in tumor development in other organs were not always “statistically significant”, for the pancreas there was a significantly increased incidence of adenoma or carcinoma (combined) in pancreatic islets in the lowest exposure group, 1.5 W/kg SAR GSM in male rats. (Current SAR limit is 1.6 W/kg for cell phone exposure) There were also “significantly increased incidences of benign, malignant or complex pheochromocytoma (combined) in the adrenal medulla of the 1.5 and 3 W/kg GSM male rats and 1.5 W/kg CDMA female rats.” The full report is here https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/ntp/about_ntp/trpanel/2018/march/tr595peerdraft.pdf
