Why be a student researcher?
Dr. Angela Bruzzaniti, director of dental student research, oversees the dental student research program and serves as the faculty advisor of the Student Research Group at Indiana University School of Dentistry.
Student Research Group is a local chapter of the National Student Research Group (NSRG). NSRG is affiliated with the American Association for Dental, Oral, and Craniofacial Research (AADCOR) and the International Association for Dental, Oral, and Craniofacial Research (IADR).
We give students opportunities to learn and excel and with the help of our faculty mentors, we provide an avenue of networking between student researchers, potential student researchers, and faculty mentors to help students identify and explore a wide variety of research experiences.
Our students take advantage of, and become involved in, projects that have made impactful contributions to the field of dentistry. Through Student Research Group meetings and the school’s annual Research Day, we provide students with opportunities to practice their presentation skills and share their research with the rest of the School of Dentistry’s scientific community.
