The Ohio State University Center of Excellence in Tobacco Regulatory Science program studies why youth and adults decide to start using, or continue to use, tobacco products. This research includes comparisons of populations based on the type of tobacco product, particularly smokers versus smokeless tobacco users, and an assessment of whether regional differences play a role in the use of these products.

The opinions in these videos reflect the views of individual researchers, and not necessarily the official position of the FDA’s Center for Tobacco Products. These videos represent accurate information about the design of these CTP supported studies at the time the interviews were conducted (Spring 2014).
