A Call for Oral Health Practitioners with Background in Clinical Research

CDA Oasis is looking for oral health practitioners with background in clinical research. We are seeking your insights on doing clinical research while practicing dentistry. We are interested in learning about your experiences; in particular:

• How did the idea to do research start?
• What led you to finding a vision of integrating research within your role as a clinical dentist?
• What did you need to learn/know to enable you to do the research?
• What are the steps you took to do the research: Did you partner with another clinician/academician? Did you do the research on your own? How did you put the research plan into action?

We would love to speak with you and we welcome your thoughts, ideas, tips, and experiences. We intend to use this valuable information to develop multimedia content that will help other clinicians plan and implement their own research projects.

Please contact us at oasisdiscussions@cda-adc.ca or toll free 1 855-716-2747. We look forward to hearing from you.
