Dr Michael Green from the MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit (SPHSU) organised an evening event to share some of his research findings on youth smoking, including the impact of policy changes such as the ban on smoking in public places and the use of e-cigarettes. The audience participated through live smart phone polling, and Sheila Duffy from ASH Scotland, Professor Shona Hilton from the SPHSU, and Professor Sally Haw from the University of Stirling discussed the implications of these findings for the goal of a tobacco-free generation.
The Unit also took part in two community centre taster days, in Calton and Castlemilk, where Dr Marcia Gibson and Dr Kathryn Skivington explored community members’ views on Universal Basic Income.
The events were organised as part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science which ran from 3rd-10th November 2018.
