Description:

If you want to join a research environment striving for excellence which impacts oral health, dental education and clinical practice in Canada and globally, you are in the right place. Our researchers cover a large range of basic, translational, and clinical research, and have a deep-rooted belief in the importance and value of basic research for patient outcomes, dental education and advancing the profession. From stronger, ‘smarter’ fillings to advances in nanotechnology and wound healing, and from cardiovascular testing to advances in dental implants and stem cell therapies, our researchers cross boundaries between oral and overall health, forging innovations in biomedical, cancer, and pain management research. If you want to apply for an MSc or PhD, you need to have a firm idea of your research project or area before applying. You will then develop this with your potential supervisor. You do not need to be a dentist or involved in dental research to apply.
