2023 IADR/LAR General Session with WCPD
The 2023 IADR/LAR General Session & Exhibition with WCPD 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 Bogotá, Colombia. The meeting was attended by 1,667 individuals from 76 countries.The recordings in this library from the meeting are a selection of the science that was presented at the General Session. 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 gained notoriety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, the oral cavity is an important site for SARS-CoV-2 infection and saliva is a route of SARS-CoV-2 transmission and detection. However, the pandemic had a negative impact on the scientific development of students and post-docs. Particularly, scientific networking has been impaired by diminished in-person meetings, thereby resulting in limited discussions in the salivary research field. Moreover, there has been a decline in the IADR memberships from young investigators in the past few years. To overcome these issues, this session highlights the work of four promising junior trainees, each of whom will bring innovative results related to salivary research. We will discuss how toll-like receptors are implicated with the pathogenesis of Sjögren’s syndrome. Also, we will present how salivary protein degradation can be used by clinicians for better patient-oriented management plans. Additionally, we will show how saliva can be used to assess oral health in geriatric patients. In summary, attendees will learn about their forthcoming work and will meet some of the emerging young investigators in the field. Finally, providing this opportunity for junior trainees to share their work may help with personnel retention in the field, reduce the decline of IADR student membership and improve the future of the salivary research field.
