A Conference of the "Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences" (INFORMS) taking place June 16-18 at Georgetown University in Washington, DC, Lawrence D. Phillips, an emeritus professor at the London School of Economics, argued against demonizing e-cigs as he presented the findings of a 2013 expert panel on the relative harm of 12 nicotine products, which named cigarettes the most harmful, while ranking e-cigs near the bottom, in ninth place.
