[ RadSafe ] EMF and brain tumors in animals

[Wes]

Radsafers,

Here is an article that claims that 95 per cent of animals exposed to
electromagnetic radiation within the safe limits as per international
standards may develop brain tumours.

At first I thought it was some really fringe stuff, but the author, Prof
Jitendra Behari, seems very capable. A quick PubMed search (see below) shows
some impressive research articles.

Is anyone aware of this research? 

Best regards,
Wes
