Global Bridges - Going Mobile: The Potential of mHealth for Tobacco Dependence Treatment

Erik Augustson, Ph.D., MPH, the program director of the Tobacco Control Research Branch of the National Cancer Institute, will discuss the use of mHealth for health behavior interventions, particularly in tobacco dependence. mHealth has been defined as "health-related services delivered by mobile communication devices,” which can be in the form of SMS messaging, smartphone applications, or the mobile web. The webinar will focus on text message-based interventions, such as NCI’s SmokefreeTXT, and the opportunity to implement such interventions at an international level.
