There are excellent opportunities for postdoctoral research at the School of Dentistry in many disciplines.
The development of the Oral Health Centre of Western Australia complex provides a fresh impetus for research in modern facilities. There has been a substantial improvement in the facilities and infrastructure available with the move to this Centre. This has included state of the art clinical facilities, new laboratories, clinical teaching facilities, computing facilities and the broader facilities of The University of Western Australia and other collaborative organisations nearby.
High quality research is a major priority for the School of Dentistry. Our research programmes have national and international links and contribute both to our basic understanding of oral diseases and to applied aspects of their prevention and treatment.
There are many research opportunities in this expanding field, both for qualified dentists and for those in the many disciplines relevant to oral health and dental services. Areas of research interest, publication details and contacts in the School of Dentistry are available on our website, at:
