Thanks to the tireless scientific curiosity of scientists in the past, huge progress in the field of implant dentistry could be attained. But doing research is not only connected with success but also means hard work and sometimes even a throwback.
Financial support deciding about the realization of a project
To reach the set targets a researcher needs to be passionate about what she/he does. Without a personal conviction and enough stamina to keep going no matter how much is demanded no results would be achieved. But even if a scientist fulfills all these prerequisites, the financial support from an independent party is finally the criteria deciding about the realization of a project.
Supporting young scientists
With the device “SCIENCE: starting with research to share knowledge for the benefit of patients” the CAMLOG Foundation has itself committed to support scientists and practitioners in their task to enhance ongoing progress in implant dentistry. In particular, to encourage young scientist the CAMLOG Foundation created the CAMLOG Foundation Research Prize. On the occasion of the 3rd International CAMLOG Congress the best three projects out of all submitted works had been awarded.
The winners in 2008/2009
Dr Wiebke Semper won the first prize 2008/2009 with her work “Effects of repeated manual disassembly and reassembly on the position stability of various implant-abutment complexes: an experimental study” (Int J Oral Maxillofac Implants 2010; 25: 86-94). The second prize went to Dr Xiulian Hu for her work with the title “Sinus membrane lift using a water balloon followed by bone grafting and implant placement: A 28-case report.” (Int J Prosthodont 2009; 22: 243-247). The work “Clinical outcome of root-shaped dental implants of various diameters: 5-year results”. (Int J Oral Maxillofac Implants 2010; 25: 357-366) by Dr Dr Dr Rudolf Seemann et al. had been awarded with the third prize.
Prof Dr Dr Dr Robert Sader, presenter of the awards, congratulated the awardees and encouraged other young professionals to imitate the winners and submit their own scientific works for the 2nd CAMLOG Foundation Research Prize.
Apply now for 2010/2011
