Professor Jimmy Steele's research included work in primary care, clinical trials, health economics and quality of life measurement and he authored or contributed to several books in areas such as restorative and preventative dentistry.1

He was extremely passionate about discussing the big issues we face in dentistry and as such we have brought together four experts in oral health inequalities to continue those conversations.

Please join us for the first Conversations of Steele on Monday 31 January 2022 at 18:00 GMT. We welcome you to watch and comment on an insightful and inspiring conversation on oral health inequalities between our experts:

  • Professor Sarah Baker, University of Sheffield,

  • Professor Barry Gibson, University of Sheffield

  • Dr Vanessa Muirhead, Queen Mary University of London

  • Professor Murray Thomson, University of Otago.

We will also highlight the Jimmy Steele Scholarship with a special introduction from Jimmy's wife, Professor Katie Bushby.
