For years, we’ve been collaborating with prestigious universities recognized as leaders in their own research domain across the world. Our close relationships with the academic community resulted in over 30 collaborations with joint activities including research projects whether on the characterization of our biomaterial or pain management product or to generate new pre-clinical and clinical data. These long-standing collaborations with universities are a vital part of Septodont’s commitment to leverage university research capabilities to address industry needs.

These prizes reward each year the best anesthesiology-related and Pulp Regeneration-related researches led by promising students up to pre-doctoral level. As a result, each winner receives a certificate of recognition and a monetary award of $1,000.
