Meeting 

After a comprehensive 

international 

search, the IADR and 

AADR Boards and 

Councils have named 

Christopher H. Fox as 

the new Executive 

Director of the 

Associations, for a five-year term effective 

April 1, 2003. Dr. Fox is the fifth Executive 

Director in the Associations' history, 

preceded by Daniel Green (1975-80), John 

Gray (1980-90), John Clarkson (1990-97), 

and Eli Schwarz (1997-2002). 

Dr. Fox received his undergraduate 

training at the University of Rochester, 

and earned MSc, DMD, and DMSc 

degrees at Harvard University, with 

concentrations in epidemiology and oral 

biology. He also spent four years there in 

dual residencies (periodontology and 

public health).

meetings in the history of the Association. 

Göteborg was also the venue for the 2nd 

Meeting of the IADR's Pan European 

Federation (PEF) (British, Continental 

European, Irish, and Scandinavian Divisions). 

The IADR officers and staff express their 

sincere appreciation to the Local Organizing 

Committee (Gunnar Bergenholtz, Chair) 

for the time and energy expended in making 

the meeting such a success, both scientifically 

and socially. 

The meeting included: 3,108 accepted 

abstracts, 316 total sessions (131 oral and 

poster discussion; 158 poster), three Hands-on 

Workshops, 21 Group-sponsored Symposia,

Stephen J. 

Challacombe 

Iam honored and privileged to have been 

elected as the 82nd President of the 

IADR, and I am grateful to the IADR 

membership for their expression of 

confidence in me. The IADR has evolved a 

thoughtful and appropriate system where 

those who have had the honor of being 

elected to office have two years on the Board 

before becoming President—in effect, a twoyear 

transition period. This allows the 

President to gain an increasing awareness of 

the organization and the responsibilities 

which the President has. It now seems quite a 

while since the actual election, which was 

some three years ago. I have had the privilege 

of working closely with John Clarkson and 

have learned much from him. He has led the 

organization superbly, and his skills as a 

previous Executive Director of the IADR 

were applied during his term as President. I 

thank him on behalf of the IADR not only 

for his outstanding leadership but also for his 

example and friendship. 

The changeover occurred at the end of 

the meeting in Göteborg. This has proved to 

be one of our most successful meetings held 

outside the USA, and thanks must go to

New IADR Group 

on Oral Malodor Proposed 

At the recent IADR meeting in 

Göteborg, about 200 members 

attended the symposium on oral 

malodor. This is just one indication of the 

growing interest in diagnosis and treatment 

of oral malodor. In addition, although some 

fifteen research abstracts were presented on 

this topic, they were scattered among the 

various sessions. Because of the increasing 

interest in oral malodor, IADR Council is 

being asked to consider establishing a new 

Scientific Group on Oral Malodor. For this to 

be achieved, e-mails from at least 50 IADR 

Regional Development Program 

Moves Forward 

Guidelines for the IADR Regional 

Development Program have been 

updated, with 2003/2004 submission 

dates (see article on page 17 in this issue). 

The following Division proposals were 

received and approved by the IADR RDP 

Committee and the Board of Directors in 

January, 2003 (from proposals received by 

the October 1, 2002, deadline): 

Division: Continental European

Central-Eastern and Eastern Europe 

The following Division proposals were 

members expressing support for and interest 

in joining the Group are required. Anyone 

who is interested is requested to contact Mel 

Rosenberg at melros@post.tau.ac.il. 

On another note, the International 

Society for Breath Odor Research (ISBOR) 

has changed the date of its 6th International 

Conference on Breath Odor Research. The 

new date is April 20-22, 2004. The London, 

UK, venue remains the same. Information 

regarding the meeting is available on the

Herzberg to Conclude 11 Years 

of Dedicated Service to JDR; 

Search Committee Formed 

Mark Herzberg, who has been Editor 

of the Journal of Dental Research since 

March, 1993, has announced to the 

IADR and AADR Boards of Directors that 

he will not apply for a new term after the 

current extended term (to March, 2004). A 

Search Committee chaired by Susan Kinder 

Haake (UCLA) has been formed, and the 

timeline calls for a short list of candidates to 

be presented to the Joint Boards at their 

meeting in January, 2004. 

Under Herzberg's leadership, the JDR 

has maintained its #1 Scientific Impact 

Factor, the JDR has become full-text online 

via HighWire Press, and an online 

manuscript submission and review system 

has been instituted with software developed 

by eJournalPress. In 2003, Associate Editors 

were named for manuscripts submitted in the 

Clinical and Biomaterials & Bioengineering 

categories, and further growth in the quality 

of submitted manuscripts is anticipated. 

The average time between manuscript 

acceptance and publication is now from 12 to 

16 weeks. 

Applications are due to the Search 

Committee by August 15. Please send your 

application, or suggest candidates who 

should be contacted, by writing

Member", to reflect the effort to ensure 

equitable geographic representation on 

the Board; increasing to 50 the 

minimum membership required for 

Division status; extending one voting

IADR member Cyril Enwonwu 

(University of Maryland, Baltimore, USA) 

will soon be receiving an award from the 

Gede Foundation for his work related to 

NOMA. The Gede Foundation has 

continued to provide financial support for 

the NOMA Children's Hospital in Sokoto, 

Nigeria. Prof. Enwonwu's research has been 

supported in part by FIC and NIDCR as 

well as by the Nestlé Foundation. The latter 

Foundation's support ultimately germinated 

in the establishment of a hospital dedicated 

specifically to the prevention and care of 

NOMA in poor children in Nigeria and 

neighboring African countries. 

IADR Past President John 

Greenspan has been elected a Fellow, 

King's College London. The Fellowship of 

King's College London (FKC) is the most 

prestigious award the College can bestow. 

The award of the Fellowship is governed by 

a statute of the College and reflects 

distinguished service to the College by a 

member of staff, conspicuous service to the 

College, or the achievement of distinction 

by those who were at one time closely 

associated with the College. New Fellows 

are traditionally presented at the College's 

Graduation Ceremonies held in the Royal 

Festival Hall in July. Following is the 

biography that accompanied Dr. 

Greenspan's presentation: 

Professor John Greenspan ScD (hc), 

Georgetown, FACD, FAAAS, FDSRCS Eng, 

FRC Path, PhD, BDS, BSc. Professor 

Greenspan is one of the outstanding figures in 

international dental research. He has 

developed the Department of Stomatology at 

the University of California at San Francisco 

(UCSF) into the world's premier department 

in the field. His ability to manage the 

interface between dental and medical research 

so effectively has been an example to others. 

Professor Greenspan is Professor of Oral 

Biology and Oral Pathology and serves as the 

Leland A. and Gladys K. Barber Professor 

and Dean for Research of the School of 

Dentistry, UCSF. He was Chair of the 

Division of Oral Biology (1976-88) and 

Chair of the Department of Stomatology 

from 1988 until 2001. He is a Professor of 

Pathology in the School of Medicine and is 

former Chairman of both the UCSF

Election Results 

for 2003-04 

Takayuki Kuroda, Tokyo, Japan, has 

been elected Vice-president of the 

IADR. His term of office began at the 

conclusion of the IADR General Session in 

Göteborg, Sweden (June 29, 2003). Voters 

also approved the Constitutional Change 

reflecting the expansion of the IADR Board 

from three to five Members-at-Large, now 

called Regional Board Members. •


President’s Message...continued from p.1 

Gunnar Bergenholtz for his superb handling 

of the local arrangements and chairmanship 

of the Local Organizing Committee, and to 

Gwynn Dominguez from the Central Office, 

whose ability and efficiency in organizing 

such events we have come to expect. The 

SARS epidemic was coming to a close and 

did affect attendance from some countries, 

but nevertheless over 4,000 people enjoyed 

the event. Our three plenary speakers were 

Baroness Susan Greenfield, who spoke on 

'the brain of the future; how new 

technologies can change our thoughts, 

emotions and personality', Professor Per 

Brandtzaeg on 'mucosal immunity; can we 

exploit this health-promoting defense 

system', and Professor Paul Sharpe on 

'genetic dentistry; making teeth the hard 

way'. All three gave superb presentations 

that more than fulfilled the expectations of 

such plenary lectures. There were some 316 

oral sessions, poster sessions, symposia, and 

poster discussion sessions throughout the 

meeting, covering the full range of dental 

research. The convention centre at Göteborg 

was one of the best we have been in, and its 

proximity to the headquarters hotels allowed 

easy access for everyone. My thanks to all 

involved with the organization. The 82nd 

General Session will be held in Hawaii from 

10th-13th March, 2004. 

This was the first IADR General Session 

for our new Executive Director, Christopher 

Fox, though he has attended many others in 

his former capacities. On behalf of the 

IADR, I would like to welcome him to the 

organization and look forward to working 

closely with him over the next few years. The 

IADR has a splendid staff at the Central 

Office in Alexandria that efficiently 

orchestrates all the various activities of the 

organization behind the scenes. I should like 

to pay public tribute to Skip Collins, our 

Deputy Executive Director, who has worked 

so hard for the IADR during the interim 

period. We all owe him a huge debt of 

gratitude for holding the reins and doing 

two jobs at once for an extended period. 

The General Session is also when the 

Council of the IADR meets. This is the 

governing body and is made up of 

representatives of all the Divisions and 

Sections and of the 20 Scientific Groups. 

Board Member-at-Large Susan Reisine and I 

have conducted a review of the Strategic 

Plan for the IADR over the last two years, 

and the Board has recommended a number 

Save the date! 

See page 24 for important dates and meeting information. 

of changes to the Constitution, some of 

which have already been accepted and 

implemented. These include an increase at 

the Board level from 3 to 5 Board Membersat-Large, 

now to be called Regional Board 

Members, to represent large geographical 

areas of the world. This, it is hoped, will 

give a more direct linkage between regions 

of the world and the Board, since each 

Regional Board Member will be responsible 

for keeping the Board informed of events in 

his/her geographical area. A second change is 

that, subject to final approval by the 

membership, each Scientific Group will now 

have a vote on Council, which therefore 

becomes a matrix of geographical and 

specialized research interests. A number of 

other changes, all directed at the basic 

concept of increasing the efficiency of the 

IADR and enabling it to meet its missions 

more effectively, are still under review and 

will be discussed by the Board and put to the 

membership in due course. 

I believe that it is important that the 

Membership be aware of the missions of the 

organization, which are not only to produce 

high-class research but also to disseminate 

these findings for the benefit of the 

international community at large. During 

my term of office, I would like to see the 

IADR embrace more of the international 

dental research community, foster 

collaboration between some of the stronger 

Divisions and those Divisions in developing 

countries, and make better use of the 

Regional Development Program, which is 

designed to aid such collaboration. I see the 

IADR as the source of evidence that allows 

governments to make informed decisions on 

strategies for the effective delivery of oral 

health care. It is thus important for the 

IADR to work closely with the FDI and 

WHO to achieve these aims. In these days of 

high technology and the development of new 

technologies, it is important that dental 

research be seen as a collaboration between 

clinical and non-clinical scientists to make 

the best use of the amazing opportunities 

that information technology now allows. It 

is also important that the IADR foster a 

spirit of such collaboration and that it help 

researchers enjoy their work. As always, the 

officers and Central Office staff are delighted 

to receive suggestions as to how we can 

promote these concepts more effectively for 

the benefit of the international dental 

research community. •

Promoting Research in Developing Regions 

A Request for Proposals from IADR Divisions 

and Sections 

Rationale/Program Description 

The purpose of this Request for Proposal 

(RFP) is to identify projects, submitted by 

IADR Divisions/Sections, that would help 

initiate research and development or 

otherwise strengthen the oral health research 

infrastructure in developing regions. In 

response to appropriate proposals, grants will 

be awarded to Divisions/Sections subject to 

the availability of funds and approval by the 

IADR Board of Directors. The size of 

individual grants will vary, depending on the 

number and quality of proposals submitted 

and the amount of funding available. 

Although it is desirable to encourage the 

development of a research infrastructure in as 

many developing regions as possible, 

consideration will be given to supporting 

ongoing initiatives that have demonstrated an 

ability to promote research development. 

Divisions/Sections currently having welldeveloped 

oral health research efforts may 

submit proposals whose objectives are to assist 

adjacent regions/Divisions/Sections that do 

not have such capacity. Where appropriate, 

regional coalitions of Divisions are encouraged 

to join together to submit proposals and 

implement programs. Wherever possible, the 

use of matching funds to enhance the effort is 

encouraged. Examples of projects eligible for 

support include: training workshops and 

grants, improving access to scientific 

information, provision of scientific journals, 

fellowship and lecture programs, 

communications infrastructures, training in 

research methods, and surveys of oral health 

that would identify further research needs and 

provide experience in conducting research for 

participants, as well as other programs which 

would advance oral/dental health research and 

improve communications and collaborations 

in the oral health scientific community in the 

region and internationally. 

Proposals are reviewed twice annually. 

Submission dates are October 1 and 

March 1—e.g., a proposal received in the 

Central Office before October 1, 2003, will 

be acted upon by the IADR Board no later 

than January, 2004, whereas a proposal 

received after October 1 will be considered 

with proposals receiving final action by 

summer, 2004. 

Focus of Proposals 

Although a range of projects is eligible for 

support, the IADR has decided to emphasize 

certain areas. The highest priority will be 

placed on those targeting support for: 

• young scientists' development by 

supporting attendance at appropriate 

local, regional, or international meetings 

to present the results of their research; 

• mentoring of developing scientists, e.g., 

travel for established scientists to work 

on site with students/developing 

researchers for various periods of time 

(short "visiting lecture" programs will 

not be considered for funding); and 

• initiation/enhancement of newsletters or 

other communication systems, e.g., use 

of the World Wide Web (www), that 

describe and promote local oral health 

research activities. 

Proposals should not exceed five (5) typewritten 

pages (approximately 1,000 words) and should 

be submitted in the following format: 

Background 

Grant applications should include a brief 

historical background of the Division/Section 

making the application and any experience it 

has had in conducting activities promoting an 

oral health research infrastructure or activities. 

The region/institution to be targeted may be 

within the Division/Section or in an adjacent 

region, and it should be described. 

Objectives 

List the specific objectives to be achieved. 

Program Description/Evaluation 

Applications should include a full description 

of the proposed program(s), project(s), 

initiative(s), or infrastructure development and 

how the targeted area would be affected. The 

description should include a methodology, a 

time line, and a plan to evaluate the 

effectiveness of the program. 

Financial Request/Matching 

Support 

A grant program budget should be provided. 

Please indicate the amount in US dollars for 

each aspect of the program and the time line 

required to implement the program outlined 

above. Indicate if university, institution, 

association, or corporate support will be 

added to this grant, the length of this 

financial commitment, the US$ amount, and 

the number of personnel who will 

supplement the grant program. Describe the 

institutional support, name the responsible 

institutional officials, and include a signed 

letter of support from the institution. 

Research Publication 

Grant applicants should indicate if the 

results of this grant will be submitted for 

publication in a professional journal or 

presentation at a scientific meeting. If so, 

the name of the journal or meeting should be 

included. Approval of the grant is not 

contingent upon publication or presentation. 

Reporting 

No later than (6) months after the completion 

date of the project, the Division/Section shall 

provide a written report to the IADR Central 

Office describing the results of the initiative. 

The description should follow the evaluation 

plan. A summary report should be submitted 

for publication in the IADR Reports newsletter 

and on the Web site (www.dentalresearch.org). 

Application 

Each Division/Section may present only one 

proposal per grant cycle. To apply for a 

grant, a Division or Section should submit a 

signed original and two copies of the grant 

proposal in English to the IADR Central 

Office in Alexandria, Virginia, USA, no 

later than October 1 or March 1. Proposals 

should be typewritten in the format 

outlined above. Grant applications that 

lack the required information will be 

returned to the originators with an 

explanation of the proposal's shortcomings. 

All grant applications will be evaluated and 

approved or rejected by the IADR Board of 

Directors. Applicants will be notified of 

the status of their submissions prior to the 

formal announcement of funded proposals. 

The proposals will be evaluated according 

to the establishment of clear and 

measurable outcome variables. For 

example, a proposal to launch or enhance a 

newsletter should include a description of 

the number and size of issues to be 

produced within a specified period as well 

as a specific plan for continuation of the 

medium subsequent to the grant support 

period. Support for scientists beginning 

research careers should specify the number 

who are currently able to travel to 

meetings, the level of support for each 

scientist's travel, and the additional number 

projected to attend national/international 

meetings as a result of the grant. •

Can You Serve 

on a Committee 

Committees are the backbone of the 

IADR, and each year the 

President-elect seeks a wide variety 

of volunteers, representing as many 

geographic areas and scientific disciplines 

as possible, to fill committee vacancies. 

If you are interested in serving on an 

IADR committee, beginning in 2004, 

contact IADR President-elect Paul 

Robertson (paulrob@u.washington.edu). 

Please include a brief "history" of 

yourself to allow the President-elect to

The IADR/AADR will provide LCD 

Projectors and Computers in all oral 

sessions for PowerPoint Presentations, 

starting with the 82nd General Session & 

Exhibition in Honolulu, Hawaii. 

Oral presenters will be able to submit 

their presentations via the Web prior to the 

meeting or bring their presentations on a ZIP 

disk or CD-ROM. The presentations will be 

loaded onto a server in the Speaker Ready 

Room, and all presentations will be sent to 

the appropriate oral session room via a LAN. 

The Hawaii Convention Center offers a 

superb location for premiering this method, 

since the Convention Center is completely 

wired for exactly this purpose.
