The Patty and Paul Levi Research Award is administered by the American Academy of Periodontology Foundation and recognizes completed research in preventive periodontology or the relationship between oral and systemic health. The program presents two awards annually, with each award providing $5,000 in recognition of work in either research area.
The award is part of the Foundation’s research awards and grants portfolio, which supports periodontal researchers advancing the science of the specialty.
