Acrylamide exposure from smokeless tobacco dwarfed by dietary exposure or smoking
The first comprehensive assessment of the acrylamide content of smokeless tobacco products (STPs) has shown that exposure to acrylamide through STP use is much smaller than —approximately 1% of — exposure from the diet or from cigarette smoking.
A new framework for assessing Potentially Reduced Risk Tobacco and Nicotine products
Scientists at British American Tobacco have proposed a new scientific framework that could be used to assess the reduced-risk promise of the myriad of innovative nicotine and tobacco products currently being developed.
The importance of scientific integrity
Our Chief Scientific Officer, Chris Proctor, is in Boston at the Fall National meeting of the American Chemical Society. His talk will cover the ACS policy making, and the importance of scientific integrity to making progress on tobacco harm reduction as part of a full day session hosted by the Chemical Information Division.
Voyage of discovery at BAT
As part of our open and transparent approach, we have designed an interactive visitor exhibit to showcase our science. Our exhibit room, R&D Live, puts you in direct conversation with our scientists as they explain the concept of their work.
Publications, presentations and posters
We publish research in external, peer-reviewed publications and present at conferences around the world across a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines.
