Axes de recherche

 Avec des expertises transdisciplinaires en microbiologie, immunologie, génomique, biomatériaux et santé des population, nos chercheurs travaillent à l’interface de ces disciplines pour mieux comprendre les étiologies, les mécanismes cellulaires et moléculaires sous-jacents des pathologies buccodentaires, développer des nouvelles technologies, biomatériaux, molécules et agents thérapeutiques et  transmettre les résultats de recherche à la communauté scientifique et à la société canadienne.

Axe 1

 Infections buccodentaires et équilibre hôte-microbiote buccal 

Axe 2

Axe 3

Santé des populations
