  • 2014 ADRF Supplement
    Volume 59 Number 4 December 2014 Australian Dental Journal The offi cial journal of the Australian Dental Association SPECIAL RESEARCH SUPPLEMENT Australian Dental Research Foundation ISSN 00450421 Introduction In this my fourth and final year as Chairman of the Australian Dental Research Foundation (ADRF), I am extre- mely pleased and proud to be able to provide this introduction to the Australian Dental Journal Special Research Supplement. This supplement continues to provide readers of the Australian Dental Journal with an opportunity to get an overview of the excellence that is currently being undertaken in dental research in Australia. Despite harsh economic times and the many difficulties within universities and research institutions, I am continually amazed at the dedication and commitment of the dental and oral health researchers who produce such high qual- ity research information for the profession. While this supplement only provides abstracts and a short summary of the research achieved, much of what is presented here forms the basis for more extensive publications which pro- vide the evidence base for our clinical practice. The ADRF is now more than ever focusing on supporting dental research in Australia and the evidence of the ADRF’s contribution to dental research can be seen in the range and quality of abstracts presented in this supplement. I would also like to acknowledge the enormous efforts of the ADRF Research Advisory Committee, chaired by Associate Professor Camile Farah, for the countless hours they spend not only reviewing grants, but also ensuring final reports and abstracts are presented in such high quality format for publication in this research supplement.
