Combined MERC & Strategic Grant Awards
2006 Awards
The Wisconsin Smokers Health Studies
Michael Fiore, MD, MPH, Professor of Medicine and Director of the UW Center for Tobacco Research and Intervention
Award: $600,000 over two years
This award builds on CTRI’s NIH grant by expanding the number of smokers being followed from 2,000 to 2,600 and by increasing the follow-up time period from 3 to 5 years. It will also support an increase in minority participation in Milwaukee. By expanding the sample size, the Smokers Health studies will be able to fine-tune the development of new treatment algorithms, particularly for racial and ethnic populations in Wisconsin.
