AboutAbout the lab
Exploring tumors of the mouth and jaw, from diagnosis to treatment
The Oral and Maxillofacial Oncologic Surgery Lab studies the diagnosis and treatment of tumors, including cancer, that arise in the mouth, jaw, and face.
This region contains teeth and salivary glands, which are not found elsewhere in the body, and tumors specific to this region develop.
Using methods from cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, and pathology, the lab conducts both clinical and basic research, aiming to create new diagnostic and treatment methods.
According to the lab's introduction, oral cancer can be diagnosed by measuring miRNA in serum.
Key terms
- miRNA
- A type of short RNA produced by cells. Oral cancer is said to be diagnosable by measuring miRNA in serum.
- Oral and maxillofacial region
- The region covering the jaw, face, and the inside of the mouth. It contains the teeth and salivary glands.

ResearchResearch themes
A variety of tumors, including cancer, arise in the oral and maxillofacial region. To advance their diagnosis and treatment, this lab conducts research from both clinical and basic perspectives.
*Illustrative imageCreating diagnostic and treatment methods for oral tumors
The lab conducts clinical and basic research that approaches tumors from the perspectives of cells, molecules, genes, and pathology, aiming to create new diagnostic and treatment methods.
*Illustrative imageSurgical treatment that considers function and form
The oral and maxillofacial region plays an important role in both function and form. The lab's mission is to advance surgical treatment and research that take this role into account, in collaboration with other labs such as the Oral and Maxillofacial Reconstructive Surgery Lab.
