Call For Papers

Tobacco control research is at a crossroads. Increasingly, investigators, policy makers, and practitioners’ recognize the need for concerted efforts to reduce smoking around the globe and across the entire spectrum of smokers. If we are to curb the global tobacco pandemic, that is, avoid one-billion tobacco-related deaths in the 21st century then tobacco researchers and researchers from other fields must expand their focus and make a concerted effort to reduce tobacco use.

Unfortunately, 80% of the tobacco-related deaths would be from the lower-income countries by the turn of this century and yet there is limited tobacco control research from these high burden nations. The reasons for such a polarization might be complex and yet unclear. Context-specific and locally available evidence is a step closer to country-specific tobacco control policy-making.

I would, therefore, encourage researchers particularly from high-tobacco burden low income countries to submit high quality research on all aspects of tobacco control research, as tobacco control research is trans-disciplinary. We cannot but wait to see our young children and the future generations breathing a cleaner and a healthier air. For such a vision our mission is to contribute to evidence based tobacco control research before it is too late to reverse the current trend.
