... The report is a committee product and does not necessarily reflect the views of the FDA, individual workshop speakers, or other workshop participants. To organize the workshop and to identify experts to address research needs and gaps relating to potential biological or adverse health effects of wireless communications devices, the committee (Appendix B)
From page 12...
... From the presentations and discussions that took place at the workshop sessions, the committee identified research needs and gaps; the selection of these research needs and gaps are committee judgments. For the purposes of this report, the committee defines research needs as research that will increase our understanding of the potential adverse effects of RF energy on humans.  Research gaps are defined as areas of research where the committee judges that scientific data that have potential value are presently lacking, but that ���������������������������������������������� closing of these gaps is ongoing, and results should be awaited before judgments are made on further research needs, or the gaps are������������������������������������������������������������ ����������������������������������������������������������� not judged by the committee to be of as high a priority at this time.
