The title of the project is "The Impact of Cigarillo Warnings on Purchasing and Smoking Behaviors Among Young Adult Cigarillo Users". Dr. Cassidy serves as Co-I on this newly funded R01 with a team based out of Wake Forest University. Their team is hoping to find out if new, picture-based warning labels that the FDA may mandate to be shown on cigarillo packaging actually reduces purchases of these products in young adults.
