E-cig: science and manipulation. Is the electronic cigarette harmful to health?
Fernando Caudevilla · Chair Raúl del Pino
Abstract
A few months ago we witnessed a media campaign, promoted by the Government and supported by several scientific societies, aimed at raising public awareness of the risks of the e-cig. While in other neighbouring countries the e-cig is regarded as a risk-reduction tool, in our country it has been demonised. In this talk we will discuss and debate the causes of this phenomenon and offer objective, realistic information on the risks and benefits of e-cig use.

What is happening to psychedelics today?
Òscar Parés ICEERS Foundation · Sarah Russo · Joan Manel Vilaseca
