Gianelly/Schilder Symposium Honors BUSDM Innovators

BUSDM faculty, students, and alumni came together at the second biennial Gianelly/Schilder Symposium on Orthodontic and Endodontic Excellence September 28-30 at the Hyatt Regency in Cambridge.

The event honored the innovative work of both Dr. Anthony Gianelly, professor and chair emeritus of the Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, and the late Dr. Herbert Schilder, former professor and chair emeritus of the Department of Endodontics.

Gianelly joined BUSDM in 1967, becoming chair of his department in 1968. He received the Albert H. Ketchum Memorial Award from the American Association of Orthodontics in 2003 for his teaching work.

Schilder, who in 1966 was one of the first professors to join BUSDM, held positions in the American Dental Association, American Association of Endodontists, American Academy of Dental Science, and Massachusetts Dental Society.
