Dental professors honored by NDA

ANN ARBOR—The National Dental Association (NDA) has honored three University of Michigan faculty from the School of Dentistry for their contributions to dental education and research.

Marilyn W. Woolfolk, associate professor of dentistry and director of student affairs, received a 1997 NDA Recognition Award for her “commitment to the goals and ideals of the NDA and her valuable contributions to the women’s oral health research agenda.”

Michael E. Razzoog, associate professor of dentistry, and Emerson Robinson, professor of dentistry, were honored with the NDA Foundation and Colgate-Palmolive Faculty Recognition Award in Research. The two were cited for “their demonstrated excellence in professional development and a willingness to support and help others in their quest for knowledge and advancement.” The award recognized their efforts in organizing the 1991 conference, “Black Dentistry in the 21st Century,” which resulted in a publication of the same name.
