Roberto Sussman

I am a physicist (PhD University of London, UK). I am a full time researcher at the Institute for Nuclear Sciences at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. My main research area is in Cosmology, but I have worked in other areas of physics, including Aerosol Physics. I have now 12 peer reviewed published papers ion the physical and chemical properties of aerosols generated by e-cigarettes and heated tobacco products. Some of my research has proved that all (i mean all) studies finding high levels of toxic/carcinogenic compounds in the aerosols have severe methodological flaws, while all experiments reporting minimal toxicity are consistent with the physical and chemical process of an optimal functioning of the devices. In fact, on my own research I can state confidently that vaping aerosols (inhaled and exhaled) are not only far are less toxic than tobacco smoke, but also less toxic than household aerosols (cooking) and indoor/outdoor pollution sources.
