Welcome to the new E-CIG SCIENCE!
More than two years have passed since the last post of the original project, yet the number of subscribers to the Facebook page has continued to grow, a sign that the demand for information in this sector is still strong.
For this reason we have decided to reopen its doors, with the same spirit of 5 years ago: simply to make information, scientific, original and independent.
The E-CIG SCIENCE is not a newspaper, we do not take and copy the news: our posts are the result of the development of peer-to-peer scientific publications.
We continue to strive to offer you the ingredients used so far: scientific accuracy, empathy with the reader, passion for alternative tools to tobacco.
We wish you a good read!
And if you are looking for some old article, we will republish them in the coming months. Meanwhile, you can enjoy the new ones, and contact us if you have any specific requests.
