9th AADR Fall Focused Symposium: Advances in Precision Oral Health Research
If you missed the 9th AADR Fall Focused Symposium titled "Advances in Precision Oral Health Research" on November 8-9, 2018 at the NIH Bethesda Campus, Md., USA, you may now access a recording of the entire meeting in the IADR CE On Demand library. The AADR Fall Focused Symposium brought together experts to discuss research in precision medicine.
Precision medicine is a medical model that proposes the customization of healthcare with medical decisions, treatments, practices or products being tailored to the individual patient. Custom interventions can then be concentrated on those who will benefit, sparing expense and side effects for those who will not.
Progress toward the development of personalized and precision health care requires intensive, interdisciplinary research collaborations. Developing effective and personalized disease-management strategies starts with research toward the development of user-focused, point-of-care technologies that detect health problems in a range of diverse settings, including underserved, low-resource communities nationwide and internationally.
A maximum of 8 continuing education hours are available from this meeting.
