NEW HAVEN, Conn., USA: Dr. Jeffrey Linden gathered several former students of Dr. Alvin Krakow, a beloved endodontics professor at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine (HSDM), to celebrate their mentor with a lecture and a dinner last fall. Linden spoke at HSDM to endodontics postdoctoral residents on the subject of ultrasonic endodontics.

Linden dedicated the lecture to the late Dr. Cyril Gaum, a close colleague and friend of Krakow’s. Dr. John Schoeffel, who traveled from California for the event, also spoke.

Attendees included Dr. Robert White, assistant professor and director of endodontics programs and advanced graduate training in endodontics at HSDM; and Dr. Lawrence Rubin and Dr. Shepard Goldstein, both lecturers on restorative dentistry and biomaterials sciences at HSDM; and Dr. Emma Koukol.
