ADHA Annual Session: Research Poster Abstract Submission

http://dent-web01.usc.edu/dhnet/images/dhnet_logo.jpg
Greetings Everyone,

We've had questions about our next North American/Global Dental Hygiene Research Conference.  Due to the 100th Anniversary Celebration at this year's ADHA meeting in Boston, our next conference will not be until 2014. 

I wanted to share with you the information related to the ADHA Annual Session and what we, the National Center for Dental Hygiene Research & Practice, and ADHA have put together and will soon be posted on the DHNet (http://www.usc.edu/dhnet).  The most critical piece of information is related to those of you who may wish to submit an abstract for the Research Poster Session.  We were able to get the date for submission pushed back from mid-February to March 1st.

Below is a copy of the information we will be posting on the DHNet and the links to the registration page and to the poster session information.

  1. Good to see that technology is changing face of dental education and new aspirants are getting more chance to learn from dental forums, blogs and dental CE courses.
    In my opinion it is better to go through CE courses because in many countries it plays important role in carry forwarding their license. Although while perusing online CE courses students can easily go through stiff dental surgeries with live video and reconsider their mistakes to enhance their skills.
    very appreciative.
    It was very informative and helpful
    Thank You
