“A vast contribution
in the future
of the dental research field�
Description: The Standing Committee on Research and Education within IADS is proud to assure the successful continuity of the International Dental Research Program - the first worldwide dental research exchange network which aims to transfer and foster research knowledge to the ones who desire to make a difference within their dental communities. The students will attend dental research internships which consist of assisting a dental research project developed within a foreign University partner of the IDRP network. The internships takes place for about 2 to 8 weeks, the students being selected through a rigurous selection process and eventually having the facilities covered by the host university. In 2016, 13 Universities worldwide offer research internships to talented dental students and young graduates, in: Portugal, Colombia, Chile, Armenia, Czech Republic, Russian Federation, Turkey, Lebanon, Palestine, Sudan The Program is a limestone in the dental student research activity, which purposes to enlighten talented dental students who one day will be the ones to push dentistry towards innovative and more successful treatments.
