GOOD NEWS from Dr. Farsalinos -- a few hours ago, he made the following announcement on Facebook:

It is a GREAT HONOR for me and our research team that the European Society of Cardiology has accepted a new clinical study on electronic cigarettes for presentation in oral form (as a lecture) during the next annual congress held in Amsterdam, Netherlands August 31 till September 4 2013. It is really an honor because:
1. It is probably the biggest scientific congress of the world. Last year, 29,000 scientists participated to the congress.
2. This year 10,492 studies were sent from 87 countries for presentation to the congress, 4,000 were accepted and only 35 single-center studies (like ours) are accepted for presentation in a lecture (the rest will be presented in posters).

The exact words of the European Society of Cardiology acceptance letter were: "Your abstract has been chosen for its outstanding quality and will be presented during an oral abstract session. Each presenter has 15 minutes to present his/her work (10 minutes powerpoint presentation + 5 minutes questions-and-answers). "

So, the biggest scientific conference of the world and one of the most respectable Scientific Organizations is giving us 15 minutes time to present a single study. I am really proud that they have shown so much respect and value to our study. And i would like to thank all participants, without them the study would have never been performed.


KUDOS to him!!! :toast: He's my hero. ;)

Worldwide internet survey close to completion



We would like to announce that the questionnaires for the worldwide internet survey will be available until June 25, 2013. We believe that we already have sufficient participation and it is time to start analyzing the results. This will be a long and hard-to-do process, due to the huge amount of data and the different languages used.

I would like to thank all vapers from all over the world for spending their time answering to the questionnaire. We thank each and every one of those who have contributed even the smallest amount so that this study can be performed. We thank the (small) list of contributors from the e-cigarette industry who invested on this without having any control on the results and presentation. Especially, we would especially like to thank Vicki from Cignot.com for covering a significant amount of the cost for this study, much more than the status of MEGA Contributor required. It was their contribution which allowed us to close the budget and be able to proceed with the analysis.

The analysis will take some time. We will need to translate data from 8 languages and this will be a difficult thing to do. Please be patient, you will be informed about the results when we are able to report something. Don’t forget that this survey was performed in order to be published in major medical journals, thus we cannot disclose all results before the publication. We strongly believe that this study will have a big impact and will provide new information about the habits and experience of vapers.



On behalf of the research team, I thank you for your participation
