The National Institute for Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) has awarded the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) School of Dental Medicine an $11.7 million grant to start a resource center to study therapies for regenerating damaged dental, oral, and craniofacial tissues.
The Michigan-Pittsburgh-Wyss Resource Center: Supporting Regenerative Medicine in Dental, Oral and Craniofacial Technologies has been established along with the University of Michigan and Harvard University as part of the NIDCR's Dental, Oral, and Craniofacial Tissue Regeneration Consortium.
A second tissue regeneration center at the University of California, San Francisco also has received funding from the NIDCR.
