Description

The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) is continuing its support for dental practice-based research by soliciting research to be conducted in the dental school predoctoral/postdoctoral clinic setting. Dental school clinics provide a unique and robust setting in which to conduct research due to the variety of general dentistry and specialty clinics and unique patient population with needs ranging from simple to complex. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is soliciting applications for practice-based research studies conducted in the dental school predoctoral/postdoctoral clinics, to provide clinical research experiences and educational activities in the dental school setting. Applications to this FOA must address: 1) collaborative partnerships between faculty members who are research-focused and those who are clinically-oriented; 2) intra- and/or inter-institutional collaborations; 3) practice-based research experiences in dental school predoctoral/postdoctoral clinics, by expanding dental school clinics to incorporate practice-based research activities; and 3) clinical research skills development through coursework and/or research education/training opportunities.
