Description
This opportunity enables investigators to apply for access to biospecimens (urine, plasma, serum, and genomic DNA) and related research data from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study. The PATH Study is a large, ongoing, nationally representative longitudinal cohort study of tobacco use, behaviors, attitudes, exposures, and health outcomes in the U.S., designed to inform tobacco regulatory science and public health policy. The biospecimens and data are intended to support meritorious research projects that align with PATH Study objectives, particularly those advancing tobacco regulatory science.
