Professor Sreenivas Koka FCGDent being ceremonially admitted into Fellowship by College President Dr Roshni Karia
The Livery Hall, Cutlers’ Hall, Warwick Lane, London EC4M 7BR
Role Fellows, Associate Fellows who have not previously been formally presented, and new Fellows are invited to be presented for ceremonial admission into our Fellowship community by the President of the College, Dr Roshni Karia.
The presentations will be incorporated within the Fellows’ Summer Reception, and will take place in front of gathered Fellows and Associate Fellows of the College.
This is the first opportunity for Role Fellows to be presented, and all Role Fellows attending the Fellows’ Summer Reception will be ceremonially admitted.
It is also just the third opportunity for Associate Fellows to be presented, and all Associate Fellows attending the Fellows’ Summer Reception who have not previously been presented will be ceremonially admitted.
New Fellows, and any College Fellow attending the Fellows’ Summer Reception who has neither been ceremonially admitted at a previous College Fellows’ Reception nor had their fellowship of the former FGDP(UK) conferred at a Diplomates’ Day will be ceremonially admitted.
Photographs of each presenting Fellow, Role Fellow and Associate Fellow being ceremonially admitted by the President will be made available shortly afterwards to download free of charge.
The Fellows’ Summer Reception is an opportunity for dental professionals to network with their peers, as well as to meet College Trustees and members of the College Council and Faculty Boards.
Taking place from 6pm to 9pm, with registration open from 5.30pm, it will follow the Academic Court Convention (11am-1pm, invite only), 1992 Circle Lunch (1pm-2.20pm, open to all College members) and the second College of General Dentistry Lecture (3pm-5pm, open to all).
Formal business attire is recommended.
