Researchers funded by the tobacco industry

There is overwhelming evidence that tobacco damages the health of smokers and non-smokers.

This is why we do not fund researchers who:

  • have a research grant from the tobacco industry
  • are applying for funding from the tobacco industry
  • are employed on a research grant from the tobacco industry.
