Description: This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) solicits Oral Health Research Education (R25) grant applications from applicant organizations that propose to infuse an appreciation of science and the results of scientific research into the dental school curriculum and to develop a pipeline of students interested in pursuing a career in oral health research. The main emphases of this program are to strengthen the research component of dental education, to enhance the application of basic and clinical research findings to clinical training and to encourage both dental school and undergraduate students to pursue careers in oral health research. Projects funded through this grant should encourage students and faculty to participate in broadly defined scholarly activity and monitor the latest science, and provide undergraduate, dental and postgraduate students with an appreciation for oral health research so they may be more likely to pursue academic careers, advanced research degrees and research training. Through these grants, clinical, basic and behavioral science researchers will become an active part of the educational fabric and interact with students throughout all four years of dental school as well as during the postgraduate specialty training period.
