Thinking 'bout THR Events & Opportunities
Thinking 'bout THR Events & Opportunities
November 8-12, 2024
Wanted: Information on events and opportunities to include in this newsletter.
Organizers of events or opportunities that interest people in the nicotine space are welcome to submit their information for possible inclusion in this ongoing list.
Events and Opportunities are individual categories, each with a list organized by year. This might be too long for some email providers. If it is, you’ll see a link to view the entire clipped message at the bottom of the email.
Additions to events or opportunities can be found with a quick scan of the lists by the *NEW* notation at the beginning of a listing. In this edition, you will find new listings in the 2024 and 2025 event and opportunity sections.
There is a new section called “awareness campaigns.”
There are many additions to the 2024 and 2025 Events and Opportunities categories. Those of you who receive this via email will probably have a link at the bottom referring to a clipped message, and you will have to click on it to see the whole thing.
And I still have more things to add… but it can wait!

Notes:
Check out the public Google calendar of THR-related events created and maintained by Clive Bates. Also, check out the event calendar from Ecig Intelligence. This is a good resource for information on conferences about addiction/behavior.
I create these newsletters as a personal project. They are not affiliated with any current or past employers or groups I do volunteer work with. I receive no financial compensation for my efforts to create these newsletters.
I believe that everyone deserves a seat at the table. If you’re interested in nicotine with a focus on THR, this newsletter is for you.
