BSSPD Research Award

The Society is sponsoring this new award to encourage research into aspects of Prosthetic Dentistry. This award of £1000 is available to one winner per year who must be a current member of the Society.

The award will not be considered to support travel to a meeting but should be used to support a research project with regards to the purchase of hardware or consumables.

The application should detail the exact nature of the research project and how this award will contribute to it. The winner of the award is required to present their results on completion to the society.

The presentation of the award will be at the sole discretion of the appointed judges and the decision of the judges will be final and not open to appeal.
