Summary/Abstract: Between 2012 and 2018, the University of Medicine and Pharmacy from Tîrgu Mureº, in partnership with American, Hungarian and Romanian scientists from dozens of institutions, has launched a research entitled Building Capacity for Tobacco Research in Romania, composed of seven complementary research studies. One of these studies was the Tobacco-free Medical University project, which resulted in the introduction of the tabaccology course in the curricula of students. This project and other two studies were presented in November 2016 in the Romanian Parliament with the report entitled The Economics of Tobacco and Tobacco Taxation in Romania. We are member of 2035 – The First Tobacco-free Generation movement being invited to the Global Forum on Human Rights and Tobacco-free World (Bucharest, Cotroceni Palace, 26th March 2019).
