Description
The IADR Colgate Research in Prevention Travel Awards are administered by the International Association for Dental, Oral, and Craniofacial Research and sponsored by Colgate-Palmolive Company. They encourage new investigators to undertake research in oral disease prevention and share their findings with the international dental and oral health research community.
Eligible research addresses prevention of caries, gingivitis, periodontitis, xerostomia, oral cancer, or other oral diseases and conditions. Research on preventing systemic disease is also considered where oral disease is a significant potential contributing factor. Beyond preventive agents, the program accepts preventive programs, demonstration projects, and community programs with measured and reported outcomes and clearly articulated disease-prevention benefits. The awards support attendance at the 2027 IADR/APR General Session & Exhibition in Melbourne, Australia.
