Description

Understanding the vaping epidemic through novel integrative monitoring tool. This project aims to pioneer an innovative strategy for timely insights into vaping epidemic, intergrating wastewater analysis and human biomonitoring. The project expects to generate systematic evaluation of vaping biomarkers, a retrospective analysis of vaping patterns within communities, at daily resolution and across distinct age groups, and integrate vaping data with diverse regulatory frameworks. The expected outcome is a robust evaluation of existing vaping control measures, furnishing policymakers with evidence-based insights to shape future vaping policies. This provides significant economic and social benefits by helping authorities navigate the dynamic landscape of vaping including its swift market shifts and legal intricacies.. Scheme: Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Field: 4202 - Epidemiology. Lead: Dr Qiuda Zheng
