Formally launching in mid-2022, the Center for Innovation and Translation is an exciting new venture that will drive clinical re搜索 partnerships to support the oral and overall health of people in the United States and beyond.
亚瑟A. 杜戈尼牙科学院’s location in the 旧金山 Bay Area puts it at the heart of innovation across many fields, 包括生物技术, 大数据, artificial intelligence and emerging technologies of all kinds. In support of the Dugoni School’s purpose to help people live healthy lives, the center will bring together internal and external collaborators to develop innovation and translate clinical re搜索 into practice.
The center will be a base for both commercial and noncommercial academic-driven activities to help turn ideas into reality.
Building Partnerships to Advance Clinical 研究, Support Oral Health and Help People Live Healthy Lives
目标
中心的目标是:
- Facilitate small pilot innovative activities and clinical studies to drive evidence for larger, better informed and more significant grant applications for translational and clinical re搜索.
- Continue and expand commercial collaborations for showcasing innovation and serial sponsored clinical re搜索 studies.
- Engage current faculty in innovation and clinical re搜索 projects of any and all varieties, building this re搜索 culture into the clinical workforce.
- Serve as home for the Dugoni School’s “Biobank” to facilitate a whole new era of patient sampling and clinical assessment and investigation for global academic and commercial access. Work will include big-data analysis to find links between oral and general health; use of salivary diagnostics to improve our ability to diagnose and treat oral and systemic conditions; re搜索 into salivary biomarkers through metagenomic analysis; and other studies of the oral microbiome.
- Expand practice-based re搜索 and innovative activities by engaging our alumni community.
- Launch multi-center clinical studies funded either by commercial companies or noncommercial entities such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
- Support scientific value and income generation in parallel through clinical re搜索 studies funded and sponsored by commercial companies or funded by the company and sponsored by the dental school.
目前正在形成, the Center's advisory board will include senior administrators and leaders from the Dugoni School as well as representatives from outside the school. Also included are representatives of organizations such as the National Institute of 牙科 and Craniofacial 研究, practice-based re搜索 networks and commercial technology companies. The board will also include a microbiome specialist, and a patient or public representative. 在未来, the Center for Innovation and Translation is expected to include a clinical re搜索 manager, 研究护士, re搜索 dentists and statisticians/methodologists.
