2010 UK National Smoking Cessation Conference
The UK National Smoking Cessation Conference attracts world-class speakers presenting the very latest in clinical, research and policy developments.
This year, the UKNSCC will reflect the latest developments in good practice for smoking cessation in special populations, new indications for NRT, medication compliance, marketing and supporting tobacco control activity, and the impact of illicit tobacco.
The UKNSCC agenda is driven by the involvement of the field and will contain presentations from practitioners that focus on the policy and practice of helping smokers to stop.
We hope that you will be able to join us and to contribute to this unique event.
