2005 FRECHETT AWARDS
New investigators in Prosthodontics are encouraged to
apply for one of two 2005 Arthur R. Frechette Research
Awards in Prosthodontics.The Award is the annual
research competition for new investigators sponsored by
the Prosthodontics Research Group of the International
Association for Dental Research and honours the memory
of Arthur R. Frechette who served as Secretary-Treasurer
of the IADR from 1968 until 1977. Each Award recognizes original research by new investigators and is
sponsored by the Prosthodontics Research Group of the
IADR and supported by the Whip Mix Corporation. One
award is for Prosthodontic research undertaken with a
Materials Science or Bioengineering oriented protocol and
the other is for Prosthodontic research undertaken with a
Biological Sciences and Tissue Engineering oriented
protocol. Researchers carrying out original research are
eligible for the Frechette Award if they have been the
primary author of no more than three articles published
in refereed dental journals. Each award carries a cash prize
of $1,000.
Research submitted for the IADR meeting in Baltimore, Maryland is eligible for consideration for the
Frechette Award, provided it has not been published elsewhere or will not be under consideration for another award.
Abstracts must be submitted to the Prosthodontics
Research Group of the IADR by the October 1, 2004
deadline with the appropriate boxes on the on-line
submission checked.
The abstracts will be judged for (1) originality and
scientific design of the investigation, (2) suitability of the
methods of analysis, and (3) scientific value of the work.
Selected finalists will be judged at the 2005 IADR meeting in Baltimore, Maryland and the winner will be
announced at the Prosthodontics Research Group Business Meeting.
