Minister Simon Harris said the research could provide evidence that would help ‘potentially prevent another tobacco-like health catastrophe’.

A 24 million euro investment by the Government in 43 different research projects includes half a million euros in funding to examine the impact of vaping.

Another project aims to establish a wellbeing study to examine student health colleges on the island of Ireland and how parenting may impact on the transition to college. The funding for the 43 projects is provided through the Irish Research Council and Science Foundation Ireland ’s Pathway Programme, which awards funding to emerging postdoctoral researchers.

“It is crystal clear that long-term smokers represent just a small part of the target market of the big e-cigarette brands. “There are more than 7,000 vaping solutions on the market with little or no evidence about the impact of the product on the health or wellbeing of those who use them.”
