Farhang is a Senior Scientist Consumable Development, working on the development of new smoke-free products, with specialization in thermal science, fluid dynamics, mechanical engineering and electromagnetism.

He holds a PhD in Computational Physics from ETH Zurich, a MSc in Mechanical Engineering (Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer) from the University of Tabriz, Iran. 

Farhang joined PMI in 2015 as a scientist primarily focusing on developing smoke-free products by designing experiments, prototyping and using computational simulations. Before joining PMI, he worked in academia: at ETH Zurich where he was part of a multidisciplinary group in the field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) developing new CFD models for fluid dynamics simulations of high energy applications and focusing on magnetohydrodynamics and turbulent flows.

PMIScience.com is operated by Philip Morris International for the purpose of publishing and disseminating scientific information about Philip Morris International’s efforts in support of its smoke-free product portfolio. This site is a global site for use by scientists, the public health and regulatory communities, and other stakeholders with an interest in tobacco policy. The purpose of this site is not advertising or marketing, nor is it directed at any specific market. It is not intended for use by consumers. New tobacco products sold in the United States are subject to FDA regulation; therefore the content of this site is not intended to make, and nor should it be construed as making, any product related claims in the United States without proper FDA authorization. ​

Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. All of our RRPs are smoke-free products that deliver nicotine with far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
