Session Description
This symposium aims to recognize Dr. Robert J. Genco’s contributions to Periodontal Research.
Bob Genco was a giant in basic science, translational and clinical research. A leader (AADR and IADR President) and yet humble; a wonderful mentor to generations of students and a visionary whose impact will go on for years. This symposium will focus on one of his more recent legacies, the link between periodontal disease and systemic diseases. His work encompassed everything from the epidemiological link to the mechanisms behind each oral-systemic link. The program will be presented by select colleagues and collaborators to recognize his achievements, pay tribute to his dedication and commitment to the advancement of research, and to acknowledge his legacy.
This symposium is directed at a broad audience, from dental students, residents and PhD candidates, to post-doctoral fellows and faculty members at any stage in their career. The purpose of this symposium is to review the science behind periodontitis links to systemic disease and how understanding mechanism with impact overall health. The symposium will also identify current gaps in knowledge and help shape the next generation of studies.

Learning Objectives
- To improve understanding of pathogenesis of periodontal disease and the link to systemic diseases.
- To develop knowledge and understanding for establishing personalized preventive and treatment strategies for periodontitis and reducing risk for systemic diseases.
- To identify the current gaps in knowledge in the field and provide guidance for future studies investigating periodontal disease and its link to systemic diseases.
