>Vaping industry participation in research discourse is a commercial determinant of health that can shape research on vaping harms and policy.

>Addressing health organizations’ lack of vaping industry participation policies is a public health lever to counteract industry influence.

>Strong participation policies can support the integrity of the evidence on vaping harms, which informs vaping policy, control and legislation.

>This research recommends further developing and updating organizational research participation policies to address vaping industry participation directly. Stephen Hamann
