Student Research Group (SRG) is an association of dental students with an objective to facilitate, support and promote research-related activities in dental school. Comprised of students who have taken the initiative to distinct themselves by joining this exclusive group striving to comprehend the scientific methods that lead to discoveries, inventions and effective skills in preventing and promoting oral health. Members have presented their research in the form of posters, abstracts and oral presentations in conferences across the country which has not only expanded horizons of their vision of dental field but also help tremendously in developing their personalities into outspoken and promising leaders in dentistry.


SRG Philosophy

The application of research methods not only help to progress in science but can also be applied to life in general. The basic principles are the same – identify a problem (Purpose), set goals (Aims and Objectives), gather your resources and work towards finding a solution (Materials and Methods), and be result oriented (Results). Most of all remember that it's the effort that need to be celebrated not just a favorable result. There's always a silver lining in the clouds, one must have an eye to look for it (Conclusion).
