The Cohort Study on Mobile Communications (COSMOS) will follow more than a quarter milion people in Britain and Northern Europe over the next three decades to determine whether cell phone use poses any health risks. You can read about it at Reuters Health.

Given the accelerating changes technology has wrought over the last three decades I'd bet that a study of cell phones (at least the kind we currently use) will be as interesting to the people of 2040 as a study about the risks of using teleprinters would be to us today.
