We are devoted to improving access to economic research and information that can affect and inform health and economic policies, including especially those related to unhealthy products like tobacco and alcohol. As a program of the Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University, Tobacconomics is not affiliated with any tobacco or alcohol manufacturer. Learn about us.
