Summary

This study looks at whether brain scans can predict which young adult vapers will start smoking cigarettes. 180 vapers who don't currently smoke will have their brains scanned and then receive weekly anti-vaping messages for a year. Researchers will track their vaping and smoking habits to see if the messages and brain activity can help prevent them from starting to smoke.
