Second global nicotine forum scheduled

The organizers of the recently held Global Forum on Nicotine have announced that they will stage another such event in a year’s time.

The second Global Forum on Nicotine is scheduled to take place at the Marriott Hotel, Warsaw, on June 5–6, 2015.

The first GFN, which attracted about 200 people from 30 countries, was organized by U.K.-based Knowledge-Action-Change, whose co-director, Gerry Stimson, is professor emeritus at the London School of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.

It was held on June 27–28, also at the Marriott Hotel, Warsaw, where participants included scientists, researchers, representatives of tobacco- and e-cigarette manufacturers, vaper activists, at least one politician and tobacco control advocates.
