About the Journal

Nicotine & Tobacco Research is one of the world's few peer-reviewed journals devoted exclusively to the study of nicotine and tobacco.

It aims to provide a forum for empirical findings, critical reviews, and conceptual papers on the many aspects of nicotine and tobacco, including research from the biobehavioral, neurobiological, molecular biologic, epidemiological, prevention, and treatment arenas.

Along with manuscripts from each of the areas mentioned above, the editors encourage submissions that are integrative in nature and that cross traditional disciplinary boundaries.

The journal is sponsored by the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco (SRNT). Nicotine & Tobacco Research welcomes submissions from authors who belong to historically marginalized groups, particularly with respect to cultures or groups that are underrepresented in our field. This includes, but is not restricted to, ancestry, ethnicity, age, gender identity, sexual orientation, nationality, socioeconomic position, or geographical location. It publishes twelve times a year.
