The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) is giving six students the opportunity to study cosmetic dentistry at the AACD's 28th Annual Scientific Session, May 2-5, in Washington, DC, through the APEX Scholarship Award.
With the scholarship, students' registration fees are waived, and they receive round-trip coach-class air travel (up to $500), hotel accommodations, and one year of AACD membership.
This year's winners are:
- Kallie Law, University of Alabama Birmingham
- Michael Cheng, University of Illinois
- Alec Zurek, University of Illinois
- Laura Tulga, Medical University of South Carolina
- Damir Konakovic, Malmo University
- Taylor King, University of Tennessee
Undergraduate dental students are eligible to apply for the scholarships, and they are selected based on academic achievement, as well as their understanding of and commitment to the future of cosmetic dentistry, the AACD noted in a press release.
While in DC, the winners will receive hands-on training and education alongside industry professionals in workshops and lectures. They will also have the opportunity to attend AACD's social events to network with other dental professionals.
