Clinical Research
Clinical research is closely linked to the
activities of Microbial Diseases and Biomaterials and Tissue
Engineering. To ensure effective clinical studies the Eastman has
developed the Clinical
Investigation Centre. The Eastman Clinical Investigation Centre
(ECIC) is a state of the art clinical research unit where a significant
number of RCTs and case control studies in periodontology and surgical
implantology in the areas of wound healing and inflammation are
performed funded by strategic industrial partners, research charities
and the CBC. The ECIC is performing the clinical research based
on the research findings of the EDI research divisions and research
priorities and currently 5 staff members from the Periodontology
Unit are appointed on funding deriving from grants to support the
related activity.
Clinical research is aided by close alliance with the Institute's Biostatistics Unit, International Centre for Evidence Based Oral Health and Library.
Research in the division is encompassed by three themes:
Wound Healing
Outcome Based Oral Health
Inflammation and Infection
