Brian King, Director of the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products, is set to participate in a public dialogue next month regarding e-cigarettes and harm reduction. King took on the role of Director in July 2022 and began implementing strong regulations on e-cigarettes, including strengthening the review process for PMTA, and issuing warning letters to non-compliant companies. Prior to this dialogue, King only made an appearance and delivered a speech at the Global Tobacco and Nicotine Forum in September of last year and has not interacted with the public since. This dialogue will be his first public interaction with industry professionals since taking on the role.
