The Ozar-Hasegawa Ethics Award is an annual award presented by the American Society for Dental Ethics to a dental or dental hygiene student for an essay or comparable product of careful ethical reflection. The Award is named for two individuals who have contributed to the scholarship, discussion, and application of dental ethics, Professor David Ozar (Loyola University) and Dr. Thomas Hasegawa Jr. (Baylor, deceased).

 

Annually, the ASDE Board of Directors announce the Ozar-Hasegawa Essay Program. The Program is open to submissions from predoctoral, dental hygiene, graduate dental and graduate dental hygiene and international dental students. Entries are due in March and winners announced in May. Details for entry can be found on the attached application.
