Research Prize in Special Care Dentistry
Sponsored by the British Society for Disability and Oral Health

The British Society for Disability and Oral Health has instituted a small grant research competition worth up to £5,000. The grant may be used to support research within the area of special care dentistry, particularly projects which benefit special care dentistry in community settings.

• The grant may be used to support consumable costs of new projects, to include some limited staff costs.
• The focus of this call is on early career researchers/clinicians. It is possible however for an early career researcher/clinician to make a co-application with an established researcher
• The grant must be used to support research to benefit special care dentistry, particularly projects based in community settings.
• The BSDH prizes subcommittee will judge projects. Applicants must be members of BSDH.
