2022 AADOCR/CADR Annunal Meeting

The 51st Annual Meeting of the AADOCR was held in conjunction with the 46th Annual Meeting of the Canadian Association for Dental Research, from March 14-26 as a hybrid experience with 839 individuals from 18 countries attending in person in Atlanta, GA and 692 individuals from 21 countries attending virtually. 

The recordings in this library from the meeting are a selection of the science that was to be presented as part of the Annual Meeting. These recordings give you the opportunity to participate in the meeting and hear from leading researchers. The recordings include IADR Distinguished Lecture Series speakers and symposia from a collection of scientific groups and networks.

This session can be purchased as part of the full meeting recordings within the product bundles

Session Description 
This symposium will showcase a set of newly developed models for amelogenesis created from a NIDCR-supported set of cooperative agreement projects in the last two years. This NIDCR effort to develop physiologically relevant models of amelogenesis that are robust and validated so that they can advance studies of healthy and diseased human conditions involving teeth began in Summer 2019 with four awards from RFA-DE-19-004. The four research groups will present their models, describe their plans for their characterization, and describe how these models will be useful to the scientific community. This highly collaborative project also involves close involvement with FaceBase.org which is a public data repository that hosts biological and biophysical data on these models generated by the groups. A discussion period will follow introductory remarks and presentations to engage the audience and answer questions about the models or data resources, and to inform investigators where to obtain the animal/in vitro models and data from the respective repositories. The goal is to introduce the scientific community to these available new models for study of different stages of amelogenesis and to announce availability to the large amount of biological and biophysical data currently being conducted by these supported groups that will be collected and openly shared to all.

Learning Objectives
  • Provision of new knowledge in specific areas
  • Changes in the attitude and approach of the learner to the solution of dental problems
  • Introduction to and/or mastery of specific skills and techniques
