the waves could be harmful to young people's memory

Do mobile phones have any impact on memory, yes or no? A study by the Swiss Public Health Institute Swiss TPH, relayed by Le Temps, concludes that the electromagnetic fields at high frequencies of these devices can have adverse effects on the development of memory in certain areas of the brain.

The one-year study of 700 young Swiss aged 12 to 17 will be published in full on 23 July. It highlights a "significant drop" in memory performance for young people using their device on the right ear. This type of memory, located mainly in the right hemisphere of the brain, can be evaluated by memory tests on computer using abstract figures to bademble. Martin Röösli, at the origin of the study, makes the link between the dose of electromagnetic radiation absorbed and the effects observed

Other necessary studies

According to the researchers, only calls made without a hands-free kit , the phone directly attached to the ear, can have an effect on the brain. No connection to memory development has been identified for the simple act of sending messages or browsing online, activities that only cause modest irradiation of brain areas related to memory.
