Murphy Brown Lab
AT BROWN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH
Our research is focused on interventions to promote healthier lifestyle changes in individuals who smoke cigarettes and are overweight or obese. The team is led by Primary Investigator, Dr. Cara Murphy, and is made up of staff, graduate and undergraduate students, and nurse practitioners.
Our Studies
The Get Fit to Quit Study aims to learn how a specific intervention programs work to help people who are overweight or obese quit smoking without gaining weight.
The THRIVE Study aims to learn more about how electronic cigarettes and financial incentives impact a person’s smoking and weight.
