EOFY22: Contribute to the work of the Australian Dental Research Foundation

“ADRF [Australian Dental Research Foundation] funding has allowed us to expand our research parameters and introduce greater innovation."

Manju Sofia Pitchai is a PhD candidate undertaking research focused on enhancing osseointegration to maximise the success of dental implantology. She hopes that her work will inspire other young dental graduates to become researchers.

At the close of business on 31 March this year, the ADRF received 114 applications for funding support from dental researchers, just like Manju, from across Australia.

The ADRF would need in excess of $1.2m to fund them all.

Over the next few months, the ADRF’s Research Advisory Committee, under the leadership of its newly appointed Chair, Associate Professor Deb Cockrell AM will assess each application and recommend to the ADRF Board of Directors which projects should receive funding support. These are tough decisions … and that’s why our assessment process is so rigorous.

DONATE NOW

We know that among those who miss out on funding, there remain projects that merit funding. With your help, we can increase the number of projects that can be supported.

If you are thinking about supporting the work of the ADRF to strengthen dental research capability in Australia, there is surely no better time to give than tax time – before 30 June!

The ADRF is a registered charity (ACN 632 256 976) and every donation is tax deductible.
