RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

Faculty members and students actively inculcate research activities with novel outcomes. We collaborative research with the clinical departments of our dental college and with other external colleges. Research studies are experimentally designed as per standards starting from fundamental research level to molecular level. All the research works are translated into publications in peer-reviewed indexed journals. The research works are presented in many conferences and seminars by students and faculty. In recent years, faculties and students have presented their novel research findings in IADR conferences in Korea, U.S, and the U.K and in national and regional conferences and have won many awards.
