Prichard Award

The 2024 John F. Prichard Graduate Research Competition was an outstanding success once again. Nine judges, from residency programs as well as clinical judges, participated in the scoring of the abstracts. Based on this review, four abstracts were selected for oral presentation.

On January 26, 2024, the judges heard oral presentations of the selected abstracts. The winner of the Prichard Competition was Dr. Kaleb Esplin, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. The second-place winner of the Prichard Competition was Dr. Aziz Saqr, University of Texas School of Dentistry at Houston.

Congratulations to Dr. Esplin and Dr. Aziz as well as to the other two presenters.

The awards were presented on January 27th during the Business Meeting. The 2024 competition once again demonstrated the exceptional research being conducted within the residency program within the Society. The written abstracts and oral presentations were outstanding. Many thanks to the Judges for their time and willingness to participate in this year’s competition.
