Greetings colleagues and dental enthusiasts.
On behalf of the Australian Dental Students’ Alliance (ADSA), I am honoured to welcome you to the latest edition of the Dental Protection x ADSA Dental Student Magazine. Since our inception in 2009, ADSA has been at the forefront of representing and supporting dental students across Australia, and this magazine stands as a testament to our ongoing commitment to excellence, unity, and advocacy.
As the unified voice of nearly 4000 dental students, ADSA endeavours to provide a platform for communication, professional development, and networking among our members. Through our various initiatives this year, we aimed to enhance the educational experience of dental students, facilitate the exchange of knowledge and ideas, and promote holistic development in the field of dentistry.
Our collaboration with local dental student societies and the broader dental community ensured that we offered our members unparalleled opportunities to enhance their time at university. This included running events such as “R U OK? Day” and “ADSA Blood Drive”, underscoring our commitment to supporting our members' welfare and journey through dental school. Additionally, we promoted educational excellence by hosting the ADSA Grad Series, a collection of online webinars where dentists and companies provided invaluable insights to our members.
As the year draws to a close, ADSA has wrapped up a full schedule of events. It has been a rewarding journey, and we are grateful for the connections, knowledge, and experiences shared throughout the year. We hope that our members continue to benefit from these initiatives as they move forward in their studies and careers
Warm regards,
Eren Serce President, Australian Dental Students’ Association
