Kostas Kapellas is a research officer at the Australian Research Centre for Population Oral Health (ARCPOH), The University of Adelaide. He received his Bachelor of Oral Health in 2006 and Bachelor of Sciences, Dentistry (Hons 2A) in 2009 and PhD in 2014 all from the University of Adelaide.
Before commencing his postgraduate and post-doctoral research at ARCPOH, Kostas worked part-time as an oral health therapist for six years (2007 to 2012 inclusive).
Kostas has developed a passion for Indigenous Australian health research since his involvement at ARCPOH. His research interests surround how periodontal diseases potentially influence systemic infection/inflammation, specifically complications in cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

* Research associate on the Indigenous Dental Care Project investigating the change in the oral microbiome following dental and periodontal treatment and the association of systemic markers (glycaemic control, lipids and inflammation) with oral health (2022-ongoing).
Previous research involvement
* Research associate on the Oral Microbiome Transplant study investigating growth of human dental plaque and in-vivo animal murine transplantation (2019-2021).
* Associate investigator on a trial that investigated the effects of periodontal treatment on chronic renal disease/failure, vascular disease and diabetes among Aboriginal people in Central Australia (2015-2019).
* Research associate on a trial known as "Baby Teeth Talk", an RCT investigating the effects of motivational interviewing on early childhood caries prevention (2013-2016).
* PhD: Investigated the relationship between periodontal disease and central arterial stiffness among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in the Northern Territory (2010-2014).
