Hoy publicitamos este Simposio que nos ha parecido muy interesante. Se realizará el 18 de julio, viernes, en Barcelona y las inscripciones son gratuitas antes del 4 de julio.
El objetivo que se plantean es revisar la evidencia existente sobre los cigarrillos electrónicos, el potencial de daño por la exposición de segunda mano a vapor y su eficacia para ayudar a dejar de fumar. El simposio abordará estos y otros retos actuales que los cigarrillos electrónicos plantean para el control mundial del tabaquismo y las regulaciones.
El programa completo ya está disponible y la inscripción on line gratuita.
2014 Symposium: Current challenges for global tobacco control: electronic cigarettes está organizado por WHO Europe y el ICO (Institut Català d´Oncologia).
