I've tried to find research on the effects of non-ionizing EM radiation on things like the nervous system, and found only very limited results (but I am not an academic biologist and maybe didn't look in the right places).

I always assumed that people were afraid to touch the topic lest they be associated with the "cellphones are dangerous!!!" crowd.

Or (more likely but more boring) people tried it and got a lot of negative "unpublishable" results.

But what if it's a decades-long Cold War conspiracy? That'd make for a fun miniseries.

It mostly comes out sordid: blighted careers, denied tenure; and tragic, fundamental advances in understanding pinched off. It would need very talented direction.

Over the decades we have heard of a variety of dental discoveries never followed up -- vaccine against tooth decay, stimulated regeneration of whole teeth. It all may need to wait for a generation not gated by the ADA.
