Famed Scientist to Shed Light on the Dark Side of Tobacco
Posted January 12, 2021
The Stanislaus County Office of Education Prevention Programs (SCOE) will host a free virtual community presentation featuring Dr. Victor DeNoble, an ex-scientist for Phillip Morris, who was the first whistleblower to testify in Congress that nicotine is addictive. His story about how he took on the multi-billion dollar tobacco industry will captivate audience members while learning about the dangers of nicotine use, vape pens, and addiction. This forum is made possible through support from longtime partner Sutter Health Valley Area, as part of their commitment to improving community health in Stanislaus County.
