The Nicotine and Cannabis Policy Center (NCPC) is a research institute operated by the University of California, Merced and funded by the Tobacco-Related Disease Research Program and Proposition 56 (2017).[1][2][3] NCPC is directed by Dr. Arturo Durazo and is housed on the campus of UC Merced,[4] and has the goal of addressing nicotine and cannabis policy issues across the 11 counties in San Joaquin Valley and the surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains.[5][6][7] Part of the reason for placing the institute at UC Merced was its proximity to a large diverse population as well as having a higher rate of tobacco and cannabis use compared to the rest of the state.[8]
