We are thrilled to report that another undergraduate summer project has won a very well-deserved prize!
The systematic review titled ‘Oral health status of patients with peripheral vascular disease’ won Best Undergraduate poster at the Scottish Heart and Arterial Disease Risk Prevention (SHARP) Annual Scientific Meeting in November 2019. This interdisciplinary project saw collaboration between the Institute of Dentistry (IoD) and the Institute for Education in Medical and Dental Sciences (IEMDS). The project was undertaken by undergraduate students Sayed Abdulmotaleb Almoosawy (IEMDS), and Mhairi McGowan (IoD), with Dr Karolin Hijazi, Mr Paul Bachoo, Professor Rona Patey, and Dr George Cherukara as supervisors.
The Institute of Dentistry actively encourages all students to get involved in a summer research project during their time in Aberdeen. Visit our research pages to find out more about our research activities: https://www.abdn.ac.uk/dental/research/index.php.
