Description

Abstract
The society for research on nicotine and tobacco (srnt) is the only international scientific society dedicated exclusively to the field of nicotine and tobacco research. Srnt has more than 1,100 members from over 40 countries, with approximately 85 percent of those members being affiliated with U.S. Institutions, including universities, federal agencies, research and related organizations. The overall objective of the srnt is to stimulate advancement in the field of nicotine and tobacco research through the presentation of timely and cutting-edge research, discussion, and networking; this objective is largely carried out through presentation of 1,000+ papers/posters/symposia/plenary lectures at its annual meeting. IT is the hallmark conference in the field where investigators, advocates, and policymakers can learn about the latest scientific findings, including novel products in the marketplace and effective interventions and policies to reduce tobacco use in the U.S. And in other countries. The srnt annual meeting provides a crucial venue for the presentation of the rapidly evolving tobacco regulatory science research findings to the major keyholders in research and policy. The aims of this conference grant are to: 1) ensure that tobacco regulatory science content is presented in ways that are maximally informative to FDA and to researchers in the field; and 2) to support the career of trainees and early career investigators in tobacco regulatory science via opportunities for special oral sessions, professional development forums, travel awards, and other recognition. To meet both aims, srnt's program committee will meet regularly throughout the year to plan the content and format of the srnt 2024 annual meeting, aligning the presentation of scientific content with research priorities in the tobacco regulatory science program (trsp). The committee will curate paper sessions on specific topics that highlight advances in the area, foster scientific discussion and debate, and stimulate collaboration across researchers. The conference grant will also support 10 travel awards for trainees and early career investigators presenting on content related to the FDA and NIH tobacco regulatory science program research priorities. These interactions will facilitate the development of novel questions and approaches to tobacco regulatory science research and support the careers of future researchers in tobacco regulatory science. Although 85% of srnt members are based in the US, srnt is an international membership association. Therefor the annual meeting must be held outside the US periodically; the last non-US annual meeting was held in 2017. While the 2024 annual meeting will take place in the UK the vast majority of attendees and presenters will be from the united states as is the case every year. Furthermore, all conference planning including abstract submission system development, management, and execution; program committee support and program development; website and mobile APP development; online hosting of sessions presented; grant and finance management; graphic design; and all other logistical arrangements have been and will be managed exclusively in the US by srnt's management company, the rees group, INC, a small business in madison, WI. No grant funds will be paid to any non-US vendor or company, and only US residents will receive travel grants funded by this R13.
