Dean's Award for Student Research

Description: The Dean's Award for Student Research was established to motivate and encourage NYU College of Dentistry dental students to become involved in oral health related research (basic, clinical, or behavioral) at NYUCD. The award is a stipend for qualified dental students and is intended to support summer living expenses. The awards support participation in the 5- or 8-week summer program.

Students accepted to the Honors in Research Program or the Summer Research Program
(http://www.nyu.edu/dental/research/application.html) will automatically be considered for a Dean's Award. Students who receive a Dean's Award are required to present their research at both the Summer Research Day at the end of the 8 week program and at the NYUCD Annual Student Research Competition, generally held in April. In addition, students are encouraged to apply to present their research at the AADR meeting (Washington, DC, March 3-6, 2010; San Diego, CA, March 16-19, 2011; Tampa, FL, March 21-24, 2012; a Travel Award is available) and/or at the Greater New York Dental meeting, usually held the Sunday after Thanksgiving at the Javits Center in New York City.
