>"Some weeks ago somebody posted an address to a site called Dental

> http://www.dentalfaculty.org/menu.htm.
>It was emphasised that it was an independent site. In fact the words
>independent/independence is mentioned three times in "Chairman's
>Statement, Charter, Rules and Registration". It is also said that: "As
>an independent site, Dental Faculty will neither discuss nor will it
>advertise commercially available products or services by brand or name."
>
>A bit further down the text says: "The Dental Faculty has been made
>possible and is supported through an educational grant from Unilever
>Dental Research. Unilever exclusively will have the right to provide
>access to sites of their own from the Home Page and will maintain this
>right for the term of their association with the Dental Faculty."

>Clicking on the Unilever Research button takes you to a world map. Click
>on your neck of the woods. Familiar with any of the trademarks and
>products shown?
>
>Is there any ethical discussion going on within the IADR regarding the
>links between dental science and industry?"
