We’re excited to announce our award of two pilot grants:

Youth Perceptions and Counter-Messages to the E-Cigarette Retail Environment. A team at Stanford, led by Shivani Mathur Gaiha and Bonnie Halpern-Felsher, will investigate how youth and young adults perceive the e-cigarette retail environment and what factors increase the likelihood that youth will use e-cigarettes.

Effects of Tobacco Retail Policy on Youth Tobacco Risk Perceptions, Intentions, and Product Use. Another team from Stanford, led by Erin Vogel, will research the association between local retail policy and youth susceptibility to tobacco use.
