Supervisory Team
Once you have identified your primary supervisor from the list below, you will work with her/him and the Director of Graduate Studies to develop your supervisory team.
You are required to have two supervisors from Queen Mary, but you may have additional supervisors. Additional members of the supervisory team can include members of post-doctoral research staff, industrial partners or other external collaborators.
Research Areas and Potential Supervisors
Our Research strategy supports quality in science exemplified by our unique biomaterial innovations, producing translational impact from bench to clinic. At the same time, evaluating treatment interventions together with the parallel development of novel imaging and -omics technology emphasise our increasing focus on clinical trials and large studies facilitating prognostication of treatment modalities leading to improved health care and patient reported outcomes. This approach uses existing strengths in wound healing, inflammation, and immunology, which enhances our international reputation in periodontology, oral medicine, and oral cancer.
Research in the Institute of Dentistry is organised within multidisciplinary research groups, which provide critical mass of expertise and a fulfilling academic environment.
Major interests within these groups include the following:

There should be a minimum of ten supervisory meetings per academic year for full-time students (pro rata for part-time students) held at regular intervals up to submission of the thesis for examination. This is broadly one meeting per month.
Supervision may include, one-to-one meetings, telephone conversations or video-link/skype meetings – which is decided between the supervisor and student. Opportunities are also made available for research students and supervisors to meet informally but research group meetings, lab meetings and email conversations are not counted as supervision meetings.
Keeping a record of supervisions is key to a successful outcome. Students and supervisors must use the on-line Supervision Log, which you will be given access to after enrolment, and enter a minimum of ten online reports per academic year for full-time students, five per year for part-time students.
