The Launching Meeting of the National Key R&D Program "R&D of Mineralized Materials for Caries Prevention and Treatment" was Successfully Held
On Dec. 1st, 2022, the National Key R&D Project "R&D of Mineralized Materials for Caries Prevention and Treatment" (2022YFC2405900), led by I-
ReHealth, as the lead unit, successfully held a project launch meeting. Professor Zhang Xu, the project's chief scientist and Hospital of Stomatology, Tianjin Medical University, chaired the meeting. In addition to I-ReHealth as the lead unit, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology, and Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine also participated.
The National Key R&D Program targets major social welfare research that is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, as well as strategic, basic, and forward-looking major scientific issues, major common key technologies and products that are related to the core competitiveness of the industry, overall independent innovation capabilities and national security, providing continuous support and guidance for major areas of national economic and social development.
This project is divided into five topics, and will focus on the breakthrough of basic theories such as "analyzing the mechanism of in situ remineralization of dental hard tissue by bio-based/ resin-based materials in vitro, and clarifying the mechanism of biomineralization of dental hard tissue in vivo" and the overall goal of industrial transformation of research results.
As the lead unit of this project, I-ReHealth will give full play to its own advantages in R&D, transformation, production and domestic and foreign sales networks in the field of oral medical materials, and work together with all units in the project to achieve the expected goals of the project. At the same time, Professor Jianshu Lee, the founder and chief scientist of I-ReHealth, will lead the research project on the prevention and treatment of enamel caries with resin-based materials.
The basic research and product transformation results of this project are expected to enhance China's international competitiveness in the field of oral medical materials.
