Intervention Research
Our intervention research focuses on increasing the awareness of and demand for cessation treatments, as well as developing and evaluating a range of flexible and efficient cessation treatment interventions.
About the Schroeder Institute
The Schroeder Institute conducts tobacco control research with a clear and specific public health impact. Using a transdisciplinary “team science” approach, we work collaboratively with scientists, practitioners, policymakers and other stakeholders to strengthen the science of tobacco control implementation, dissemination and policy. The Schroeder Institute was established by Legacy in 2008 and has formal academic ties with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Georgetown University’s Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Training
Fostering growth among early-career scientists is integral to maintaining responsive and relevant tobacco control research. To this end, we offer a comprehensive training program for pre- and postdoctoral fellows.
