History

In 2004, the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco celebrated the tenth anniversary of its founding. During its first decade, the Society grew from around 100 to over 900 members, sponsored well-attended annual meetings and highly-influential satellite conferences to promote research, provided timely electronic and print services to increase the flow of information, and founded a new peer-reviewed journal to facilitate communication of scientific advances. The record documents considerable progress in meeting the objective of the Society to stimulate new knowledge about nicotine in all its manifestations.

As part of SRNT's Decade One celebration, two projects were developed to commemorate its achievements and help preserve its collective memory. The first is an article by two past presidents, Ovide Pomerleau and John Hughes, entitled “With a little help from its friends: A brief history of the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco,” published in the Society’s journal, Nicotine and Tobacco Research. The second is a series of e-interviews with each of SRNT’s first ten presidents. A brief structured interview was designed, and the former presidents were invited to respond in writing to each question in as little or as much detail as desired. An open-ended question was provided at the end to allow for more free-form commentary. The results of this effort can be accessed via the links below.
