This fellowship will offer additional, focused experience in Orthodontic research for those who desire more research experience for an academic career.  Typical clinical certificate training programs have limited time for research, and this fellowship will offer a concentrated experience in carrying out research as well as in related didactic areas.  The fellowship will last one year and will enroll no more than two qualified applicants at any time.  Each fellow will complete a research project and prepare a manuscript for publication.
