Carl V. Philips, an associate professor at the University of Alberta who focuses on tobacco harm reduction, health policy ethics, and scientific epistemology, recently attended a meeting of the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Tobacco Products. Philips writes about his experiences at the meeting where his comments and the comments of others who support the use of dissolvable tobacco and other harm reduction products were overshadowed by what Philips argues is an agenda against harm reduction strategies.
