Dean's Messages

One way my wife likes to  vacation is by enjoying a cruise.

On March 1, the School of Dentistry’s Office of Research and Discovery and Continuing Dental Education hosted the 20th Annual Research Day. Approximately 321 attendees from our school, university, and nation came together to discuss current research undertakings in oral cancer, and showcased progress made at the School of Dentistry and beyond. 

As a school, we will work with the other Health Science Deans to develop an integrated strategic plan.

Happy New Year! Looking in the rearview mirror, 2023 was a great year because we provided excellent patient care, educated learners and advanced our research portfolio.

As the year comes to a close, it is always important to reflect on achievements and what the future holds.

On an individual and personal level, this is the time of year when people begin to reflect on New Year's resolutions. As the School of Dentistry, it is important for us to similarly reflect, and as a part of that reflection, we recenter ourselves around our mission and core values. 

One of the pleasures I have as Dean is to shine light on the many wonderful achievements of our faculty, staff and learners.

Over the past few years, several School of Dentistry faculty have collaborated to increase the footprint of digital technologies

We move forward with hope and conviction.  

This is an excellent example of how we are growing.
