We’re proud to celebrate a major win for D26 Diana Ventura Sanchez, D26IS Carlena Almanzar, D27IS Paola Iafrate, and Principal Investigator Dr. Aidee Herman, periodontology faculty at Tufts, for presenting their impactful research, “Diversity and Inclusion in the Dental Field: The Impact of DACA in U.S. Dental Schools,” at the Hispanic Dental Association (HDA) Annual Conference in Florida and winning in the research poster competition! This achievement is a step forward for equity, representation, and educational advancement in healthcare.
