2023 AADOCR/CADR Annual Meeting

The 2023 AADOCR/CADR Annual Meeting & Exhibition provided dental, oral, and craniofacial health scientists with the opportunity to present, discuss, and critique their latest and most cutting-edge research at a 100% in-person gathering in Portland, Oregon. The meeting was attended by 2,054 individuals from 39 countries.     

The recordings in this library from the meeting are a selection of the science that was presented at 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.

Session Description 
Salivary research has garnered significant attention over the last three years during the COVID-19 pandemic, where saliva played a central diagnostic role, and those who study the oral cavity have been essential to our understanding of infection and transmission. Thanks to the advancement of cutting-edge omics technologies, novel therapeutics, innovative bioengineering approaches, and an influx of impressive graduate students and postdocs, the fields of salivary research and oral biology have made significant headway in understanding the basic biology, development, and function/dysfunction of the salivary glands over this same time period. However, during the pandemic students missed many opportunities to connect with one another and the broader salivary research community. At the same time, the field has had fewer opportunities to learn from the innovative work students are developing. This session highlights the work of four promising graduate student investigators, each of whom studies a different aspect of salivary gland development and regeneration. Attendees will learn about their forthcoming work and meet some of the next generation of scientists that will be leading us into the future of salivary research.
