According to the media, the study was conducted by researchers from the Russian Cancer Research Center based in Moscow, the University of Oxford in the UK, and the WHO International Agency for Research on Cancer in France. They tracked the drinking patterns of about 150,000 adults in three cities in Russia for up to 10 years.
