The Whole Package Inspirational teaching
On a typical day, University of Maryland School of Dentistry (UMSOD) predoctoral endodontics director Dr. Frederico Canato Martinho’s schedule has him scurrying between various combinations of clinics with dental students and graduate residents; conducting research; lecturing in graduate and undergraduate courses; and overseeing simulation labs. Also charged with re-establishing Maryland’s endodontic research lab, he conducts his own studies in the microbiology of endodontic infections, inflammatory mediators, and correlated patient symptoms, with funding from the Foundation for Endodontics. Martinho’s interest in clinical technology helped develop a national reputation for the program in this area while adopting a student- centered perspective on the research component of their training that syncs with the brief timelines of their education compared to clinical evidence research, which can go on for many years.
and progressive research go hand in hand for 2022
