Christopher Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Well COME ON VIRGINIA ECIG USERS SIGN UP! So from what I can gather they are going to document the effects of ecigs correct? I just woke up and will probably finish reading this at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krakkan Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Basically they will say if it is or is not an affective cessation device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Ah got ya. Well I think we all know the answer to that. But what do they consider cessation? Off analogs or off nicotine? If it's off nicotine we're screwed but if it's off analogs, well shoot it's a winner of a study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacker1229 Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Nice find!! So i dug a little deeper and found additional info on the "investigator" Thomas Eissenberg, Professor, Director of Clinical Behavioral Pharmacology Laboratory and I found this interesting that his most recent class he taught at VCU is Grant Writing, graduate level. Holy cow!! look at the money this guy gets and he teaches a class on how to get it!! Well he does seem to like the tobacco topic.

Christopher Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Wait so big tobacco is funding the study? That's huge, because although sort of hate them, they have the money and the know how to get these things passed by the FDA. The only thing I worry about is them kicking down the small end grass root suppliers. Which of couse would suck. But either way it could be a positive thing for ecigs.

Did you notice they are accepting only 32 participants. I did a smoking cessation study at Stanford many years back and there were well over 500 participants as so many did drop out for a variety of reasons. Me thinks this may NOT be good for ecigs, only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
