from Institute of Translational Medicine. The research project will span over 4 years full time.

The project aims to:

• Advance material characterization techniques specific to dental applications.
• Provide extensive biological training for the PhD student, equipping them with the skills to conduct high-level research in dental materials.
• Produce high-impact publications that contribute to the global understanding of endodontic materials.

Project Timeline

• Year 1: Material characterization and basic biology training.
• Years 2 & 3: Intensive biology training, focusing on the application of hydraulic cements in endodontics.
• Year 4: Completion of the PhD write-up, submission of the thesis, and finalization of any outstanding publications.

Supervision Team
