Tobacco-Free Talks -Shedding Light on New Nicotine and Tobacco Products

The Tobacco-free Talks podcast returns with Episode 2: "New Products, Let’s Set the Record Straight." In this insightful discussion, researchers Irene Possenti and Marco Scala from the Mario Negri Institute, currently hosted by ENSP under the EUREST-RISE project, dive into the complex world of emerging tobacco and nicotine products.

With the rise of e-cigarettes, heated tobacco, and nicotine pouches, it’s more important than ever to provide clear, evidence-based information. This episode tackles common misconceptions, breaks down what we know about these products so far, and highlights the importance of independent scientific research.

Through the EUREST-RISE program, early-stage researchers like Irene and Marco are contributing to a deeper understanding of how these products impact health and society — and how policy can respond effectively.
