Chennai: Saveetha Dental
College conducting Transdisciplinary Annual Research Summit (STARSummit:2015) from
29th June to 11th July 2015 at Saveetha Dental College,Poonnamalle. The STAR
summit spans over a period of 12 days. 1400 research projects of undergraduate
students will be showcased, among them 53 papers have been accepted to be
published for the month of May. STAR summit will have 4 days dedicated
exclusively for basic medical sciences, two days for preclinical research work
and six days for clinical research. What other place would be more apt to
display these projects than the library where the thinking caps go on the
student’s brains. The students’ work will be reviewed and appraised by other
students, their peers from other colleges and also from eminent faculties in
each fraternity. Gone are the days where a research has to percolate through
many barriers to reach their pedestal, Saveetha offering a priceless platform
for students to reach out and extend arms to the scientific globe around us.
As quoted by Dr. Deepak Nallasamy, Director
of Academics, Saveetha University “Igniting passion for research is the
responsibility of an institution. We at Saveetha take this responsibility serious
to empower our students to have all the required professional skills”
Research with a mind
for the future direction towards diagnosis and therapeutics forms a pivot for
the evolution and enhancement of the health care front. Synchronizing with this
thought, Saveetha Dental College has embarked on a research platform which is the
first of its kind amongst any educational institution in India. Our UG
curriculum is designed and tailored so as to motivate the budding scholars of
our institution to re-search with endurance and perseverance. A systematic
protocol with regular documentation and monitoring enables the student to
achieve their target. Saveetha Transdisciplinary Annual Research Summit (STARSummit)
has evolved as an arena to present the elaborate research work done by the
young minds.
This academic deliberation spans
over a period of 12 days and will comprise of research work across all
disciplines of dentistry including basic medical sciences. Apart from providing
a platform to present their research, STARSummit also gives an opportunity for
the students to hone their analytical skills, defend their work and appraise other
works. Synchronizing the teaching curriculum with research right from the
undergraduate level enables our students to have an edge over others in this
competitive scenario with the STARSummit being the stepping stone for achieving
greater heights.
