Welcome to the School of Dental Medicine Research Website!


Our goal is a site that will provide the most current and useful information to the SoDM community and to share with the public the innovative and groundbreaking research happening every day within the School. This site will serve as a hub for all aspects of research, from highlighting current research to providing step-by-step guides for administering sponsored projects.

Please take some time to explore our site. We are continually updating and adding new information to better serve you. If you have any suggestions or comments on what you see, or would like to see, please let us know at dentres@case.edu. We are excited about our research and want you to be, too!

What's New in Research


  • NIH Publishes Guidance on FY2012 Budget
    The NIH has issued a few notices related to the FY2012 Federal budget that was signed into law by President Obama on December 23, 2011. Important points include:
    • • Reduction of the Federal Salary Cap from Executive Level I ($199,700) to Executive Level II ($179,700)
      • FY2012 awards issued before December 23, 2011 may continue to use the Executive Level I salary cap ($199,700). Future years of these awards will be adjusted to reflect Executive Level II salary caps.
      • FY2012 awards issued on or after December 23, 2011 will be required to use the Executive Level II salary cap ($179,700). For grants already in-house (issued by the NIH) that are now limited to Executive Level II, unless otherwise restricted by the NIH, funds resulting from the lower cap may be rebudgeted.
    • • Restriction on Inflationary Increases for Future Years
      • Inflationary increases for future year commitments will be discontinued for all competing and non-competing research grant awards issued in FY 2012, however adjustments for special needs (such as equipment and added personnel) will continue to be accommodated.
      For more information, please see the NIH Grants and Policy site
