In Memoriam: Professor Dr. Rodica Luca

The European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry (EAPD) expresses its deepest condolences and profound sorrow on the passing of our esteemed colleague, mentor, and friend, Professor Dr. Rodica Luca.
Professor Luca was a pillar of paediatric dentistry, not only in her beloved Romania but across the wider European community. She also had a major contribution in the development and recognition of Paediatric Dentistry as a self-standing specialty in Romania. 
Beyond her remarkable professional achievements, Professor Luca will be remembered for her warmth, kindness, and unwavering dedication to her students and young patients. 
Our thoughts and heartfelt prayers are with her family, colleagues, and students during this time of immense loss.
May she rest in peace.
