Associate Professor of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Rabie Shanti is no stranger to Rutgers. After finishing his DMD at Harvard University, he came to Rutgers New Jersey Medical School for his MD and later became a resident at RSDM’s oral and maxillofacial program. Years later, Shanti has now returned to RSDM.

Athena Fu ’23 has always been interested in research. She enjoyed studying corals as a biological sciences major. When she completed her undergraduate degree, she thought her research career ended. But it has instead grown stronger at RSDM, where she’s a fourth-year DMD candidate.
