Ohio State Tobacco Center of Regulatory Science 
Major Goals: The Ohio State University Tobacco Center of Regulatory Science will examine two non-combustible nicotine product types, inhalable electronic cigarettes and dermally absorbed oral nicotine pouches. Both products have garnered criticism and praise: opponents focus on their potential risk of greater youth uptake, while advocates focus on their potential to help adult tobacco users switch to less harmful products. The projects in the Center will examine product characteristics, use patterns, and addiction potential of these two products.
