This summer, the College of Medicine resumed its Global Health Exchange Program after a three-year COVID-19 hiatus. The program invites graduate students from international partner sites to our Hershey campus for a three-week learning experience. This immersive experience gives our students a first-hand account of how to learn about and address global public health challenges. https://t.co/VrhQVNI8WQ
We found that directed use (14 puffs) of menthol IQOS (heat-not-burn cigarette) delivered a mean nicotine boost of 16 ng/ml which reduced craving for a cigarette. @Jessica_Yingst@PSU_ABL

Each year, Penn State College of Medicine welcomes incoming graduate students pursuing DrPH, MS, MPH or PhD degrees with a Graduate Student Oath Ceremony. Students recited the oath this week in the presence of faculty, friends and peers.
.@penn_state College of Medicine researchers, @Jessica_Yingst and @JonathanFoulds, found that e-cigarette use may help people decrease dependence on combustible #cigarettes without increasing overall nicotine dependence. Read more about the study: https://t.co/kM1jmcHyqM
E-cig use was associated with a reduction in cigarette dependence and an increase in e-cig dependence (in the condition with the highest nicotine concentration only), with no long term increase in total nicotine dependence or nicotine exposure. https://t.co/foiGYU8bK9
The results of a study by @JonathanFoulds and colleagues at @VCU support the idea that #ecigs with a cigarette-like nicotine delivery may play a role in someone being able to abstain from #cigarettes. Read more: https://t.co/XcVVEyvNXk
📢ENDS with nicotine delivery approaching that of a cigarette (36 mg/ml condition) were more effective in helping ambivalent smokers quit cigarette smoking, compared to ENDS with 0 mg/ml nicotine or a cigarette substitute.
