Next to be honored was Dr. John Lupovi- ci, a periodontist who graduated from the New York University College of Dentistry. He is certified by the American Board of Periodontics and is an active member of six other dental associations. Since join- ing the academy in 1999, he has served on its Finance and Audit, AO/OF Research Grant, Research Submission and William R. Laney Award committees. The final new fellow recognized was Dr. Jay Malmquist. He is an accomplished in- dividual who graduated with high honors from University of Oregon Dental School and is a fellow in seven other dental asso- ciations. AD A diplomate of American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (ABOMS), In- ternational Congress of Oral Implantolo- gists (ICOI) and the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology, Malmquist is also a member of 13 other dental organizations. He served seven years as an examiner for ABOMS and was the first president of American Academy of Oral Maxillofa- cial Surgeons (AAOMS) from the Pacific Northwest. A member of the academy since 1986, he chaired its JOMI Oversite Task Force for several years and served on the fol- lowing AO committees: Ethics and Profes- sional Conduct; Membership and Awards; AO/OF Research Grant; two Annual Meet- ing Program Committees; the Advisory Committee on Committees; and AO’s Executive Committee. In addition, Malmquist has authored more than 20 scientific articles, five text- book chapters and has presented at least 200 lectures around the world. Reflecting the importance of science and service embodied in its founding principles, the academy established a fel- low membership category to honor those individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the Academy of Osseoin- tegration and implant dentistry in gener- al. Criteria has been established to offer a careful balance of requirements that will ensure it is attainable by all members. “While not a form of credentialing, the Academy of Osseointegration board of directors believes that attaining fellow- ship of the academy says more about our members than case presentations or examination of knowledge,” said AO President Dr. Alan Pollack, who honored this year’s newly elected fellows. “It sets the standard for those who take their con- tinuing professional education seriously, have a strong commitment to the field of implant dentistry and recognize the in- credible value that volunteerism and phi- lanthropy have to the profession.” IMPLANT TRIBUNE PUBLISHER & CHAIRMAN Torsten Oemus t.oemus@dental-tribune.com PRESIDENT/CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER Eric Seid e.seid@dental-tribune.com GROUP EDITOR Kristine Colber k.colker@dental-tribune.com MANAGING EDITOR IMPLANT TRIBUNE Sierra Rendon s.rendon@dental-tribune.com MANAGING EDITOR Fred Michmershuizen f.michmershuizen@dental-tribune.com MANAGING EDITOR Robert Sellecb, r.selleck@dental-tribune.com PRODUCT/ACCOUNT MANAGER Humberto Estrada h.estrada@dental-tribune.com PRODUCT/ACCOUNT MANAGER Will Kenyon w.kenyon@dental-tribune.com PRODUCT/ACCOUNT MANAGER Maria Kaiser m.kaiser@dental-tribune.com EDUCATION DIRECTOR Christiane Ferret c.ferret@dtstudyclub.com CLIENT RELATIONS COORDINATOR Leerol Colquhoun l.colquhoun@dental-tribune.com Tribune America, LLC 116 West 23rd Street, Suite 500 New Yorb, NY 10011 Phone (212) 244-7181 Fax (212) 244-7185 Published by Tribune America © 2017 Tribune America, LLC Tribune America strives to maintain the utmost accuracy in its news and clinical reports.
