OSTEOLOGY RESEARCH ACADEMY 2017

LEARN FROM
LEADING
SCIENTISTS

Research methodology is of great significance for scientists. Nevertheless, many young researchers have so far acquired their knowledge on research methodology and research management painstakingly through a “trial and error” approach. Therefore, the Osteology Research Academy emerged as a development from the Osteology Foundation in close cooperation with leading scientists. More than 200 young researchers from all over the world have already been successfully educated in this program, returning home eager to implement the newly gained knowledge in their research projects. The Osteology Research Academy brings together leading scientists to share their expertise. Only few such opportunities are provided in the area of dental and craniofacial research. Don’t miss the chance to join the next course!
