RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

The College of Dentistry (COD) is gaining global impact on research of the conventional domains of clinical dentistry and modern issues in oral science. The Institute of Oral Biology (IOB) focuses on oral biology, oncology, microbiology / immunology, and molecular biology / biochemistry, as well as stem cell sciences and biomechanical engineering. The Institute of Oral Tissue Engineering and Biomaterials (IOTEB) focuses on tissue engineering, dental materials, 3D printing, and digital dentistry.
