AboutAbout the lab
New regenerative medicine using oral bioresources
The Dental Development and Regeneration (DDR) Research Center is a research center established within the Faculty of Dental Science. It brings together researchers working on dental development and regeneration, with the aim of realizing new regenerative medicine using oral bioresources.
It was established in April 2021 to put into concrete form the “regenerative and reconstructive medicine of oral tissues” that the Faculty of Dental Science has been promoting.
A distinctive feature is that young and mid-career researchers are taken out of their existing departmental boundaries and placed as PIs, creating an environment where they collaborate, produce results, and become independent.
The website at the time of establishment states that the center would have divisions for developmental research, stem cell research, control of cell differentiation, biomaterials, biocompatibility, and clinical application.
Key terms
- PI
- Short for Principal Investigator. The researcher in charge who plans research and leads their own work
- Dental pulp
- The soft tissue inside a tooth, containing nerves and blood vessels. It contains stem cells
- Regenerative medicine
- Medicine that uses cells and other materials to restore the function of lost tissues or organs
ResearchResearch themes
Researchers involved in dental development and regeneration come together to realize new regenerative medicine using oral bioresources. The center also aims to provide an efficient research environment by managing big data related to development and regeneration research, and by standardizing and sharing research procedures and materials.
