A $5,000 one-time award to a predoctoral student.
The applications will be reviewed by a selection committee appointed by the AAP Foundation President. Applicants will receive news about their application status within a month of their deadline.
The Patty & Paul Levi Research Award provides an annual $5,000 award to a predoctoral student or students doing research related to preventative periodontology and being mentored by a periodontal faculty member.
The research project must be completed by a predoctoral student or students with the periodontal faculty mentor as principal investigator. A postdoctoral periodontal resident may be part of the team.
The research should be associated with prevention of periodontal or peri-implant diseases. Prevention can be defined broadly to include epidemiologic studies, studies involving teaching non-surgical periodontology to undergraduate students especially in the first year of their dental school training, non-surgical periodontal therapy, or providing information about periodontal diseases to the public especially to students.
Levi Research Awardees are expected to submit their research to the American Academy of Periodontology requesting inclusion in the AAP Annual Meeting Program.
Eligibility is restricted to a predoctoral student or students in a dental school with a periodontal faculty or resident member as a mentor/principal investigator. The dental school does not need to have a postdoctoral periodontal program but the research must be done through their Department of Periodontology. The research and associated research project proposal must be completed prior to their application. The applicant may still submit an application after graduating as long as the research was done while they were predoctoral students. Immediate family members of the AAP Foundation Board of Directors, officers, and selection committee members are not eligible to apply for the fellowship. The award is not to be used to replace support that would have normally been provided by the recipient's institution. The award should be considered a supplement to any salary, stipend or research support.
