What is a Research Affiliate?
eviDent Research Affiliates include retired dental professionals, practice managers, dental hygienists, dental therapists, dental prosthestists, oral health therapists, dental assistants and others who do not want ‘hands-on’ involvement with an eviDent project, but would like to contribute to eviDent research.
