Mapes: Mapes on Vapes

by Chris Tachibana | Nov 1, 2019

Diane Mapes goes beyond the alarming headlines about teen vaping deaths to explain the risks, public policies, and research to address the problem. For Hutch News Stories, Diane writes about a smartphone app developed at Fred Hutch (@fredhutch) to help teens and young adults give up e-cigarettes. Diane writes regularly for Fred Hutch, blogs at doublewhammied.com and tweets at @double_whammied. image: Connor Danylenko
