Abstract

The American Association for Dental Education (ADEA) is working on several initiatives to foster an interest in academic careers. One of these strategies is a student fellowship aimed at allowing the student at the School of Dental Medicine to explore early experiences in academia. In 2016, the School of Dental Medicine of the University of Puerto Rico (SDMUPR), Medical Sciences Campus, began this fellowship. A pipeline of SDMUPR students with interest in pediatric dentistry and academics has evolved from this initiative.

Keywords:The pipeline of future pediatric dentists; mentoring in pediatric dentistry
