ICEMOHR Special Interest Group

Within the VvE, initiative is highly valued by members. To support initiatives in the context of the VvE’s objectives, the VvE makes small subsidies available. These offer the possibility to set up a so-called Special Interest Group (SIG). We would like to bring the workshop below, organized by the Special Interest Group: Innovative and Contemporary Epidemiological Methodologies in Oral Health Research, to your attention:
