Biomet 3i and the American Academy of Periodontology Foundation have awarded Tapan Koticha, DDS, the 11th annual Richard J. Lazzara Fellowship in Advanced Implant Surgery.
The 12-month fellowship provides a stipend for the fellow and funds to offset the hosting institution's overhead and administrative costs. It takes place at the student's training institution, which in this case is the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. Dr. Koticha is undergoing his periodontal program studies and has already published in numerous journals, including the Journal of Periodontology, Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, and Implant Dentistry.
