IADR Pulp Biology and Regeneration Group (PBRG) Award

The Pulp Biology and Regeneration Group is pleased to offer two student travel awards each in the amount of $1,000 sponsored by the Pulp Biology and Regeneration Group of the IADR.

To qualify for one of these awards you must be either:

1) A full time pre-doctoral D.D.S., D.M.D., Ph.D. or other student.

2) A full time post-doctoral fellow.

Students submitting and having abstracts accepted to the General Session & Exhibition of the IADR in Barcelona, Spain, are eligible for consideration.  Only submissions from undergraduate, postgraduate or postdoctoral students, as noted in the submission application, will be considered for this award.

A committee of the Pulp Biology and Regeneration Group will judge the candidate abstracts. Abstracts will be judged based on rigor, originality and impact on the field of pulp biology.

The winners will be notified prior to the meeting and will be officially announced at the PBRG business meetings.  The winners are encouraged to attend the PBRG meeting to be recognized for their work.
