Study at #IHEA2025 by @chuonomics, @JCMecon, @Courtemanche_CJ, @ErikNesson, Cotti, & Sabia finds queer youth are less sensitive to e-cigarette taxes than hetero teens, perhaps due to minority stress. Link: https://t.co/FkVy0EKEEj

RTC by @Aure_Lepine and co-authors presented @healtheconomics finds that bundled availability of PrEP & free condoms did not increase risky sex among female sex workers in Senegal #IHEA2025

Study by @maveresearcher and Cornell co-authors uses a discrete choice experiment to study the impacts of price on vaping & smoking in Indonesia. Evidence shows increasing relative price of cigarettes may induce smokers to substitute to vaping. #IHEA2025

New study by Deng, Kenkel, Wang, & Mathios uses a discreet choice experiment & finds that e-cigarette flavor ban in China leads some adults to reduce vaping and increase smoking. Net health effects may be negative. #IHEA2025 https://t.co/kWPIbN24Ei

Great paper (forthcoimg at JHE) by @e_arenasarroyo, Fernandez-Kranz & @NataliaNollenb1 utilizes Spain’s high-speed internet rollout and finds that high-speed access increased screen time, cut sleep, & worsened adolescent female mental health. Hospitalizations & suicides rose.

Study by Dahl, @nadjavanthoff, @GioMellace, & @sinne_smed finds that while adoption of a “fat tax” in Denmark reduced purchases of some high saturated fat-foods, the tax (1) was highly regressive, & (2) induced cross-border shopping in northern Germany. #IHEA2025
