RESEARCH TRAINING IN DENTAL MATERIALS SCIENCE

该培训计划的目的是在以下方面提供研究培训 向八位渴望终身发展的学员介绍牙科材料科学 从事牙科材料研究的职业。生物材料分部 将提供教学和研究体验，允许合格的预科 博士后和博士后实习生攻读硕士和博士学位 或接受非学位博士后研究培训。虽然实习生 预约。将优先考虑牙医，传统工程学 博士后和博士后实习生将包括在内。 NIDR培训方案，该方案已在该司存在了19年 现在的形式，将强调现代概念的应用 材料。此外，生物兼容性原则， 材料/组织/细胞界面，以及牙科和 医疗材料医疗机构也将是 程序。 将向受训人员提供已建立的一套教学工作 正在进行的、定期安排的课程和研讨会，经批准和 被西北大学研究生授予高级学位 学校，由三名博士教授和两名临床助理教授授课 生物材料系系。实习生将参加 他们的课程作业，并与其他学生一起进行研究。 有其他支持手段的部门。这允许有意义的 牙科实习生与工程技术人员的互动 以及生物科学专业。此外，受训人员还受益于 通过同伴辅助与已经在场的学生进行互动 学习(PAL)。将为所有学生提供额外的教学作业 由大学内的其他部门，包括 材料科学化学，计算机科学，生物医学工程，口腔 病理学和口腔生物学。 研究主要在事业部实验室进行，包括 现代最先进的超微结构、腐蚀、机械设备 性质、细胞培养、流变学、光谱分析和标本 捏造。其他设备可通过合作协议获得 与材料研究中心和康复工程 大学的中心。

The purpose of this training program is to provide research training in dental materials science to eight trainees desiring to develop lifetime careers in dental materials research. The Division of Biological Materials will offer both didactic and research experiences, allowing qualified pre- doctoral and post-doctoral trainees to pursue both M.S., and Ph.D. degrees or to receive non-degree post-doctoral research training. Although trainee appointments. will given priority to dentists, traditional engineering predoctoral and post-doctoral trainees will be included. The NIDR training program, which has existed in the Division for nineteen years in its present form, will stress the application of modern concepts of materials. In addition, principles of biocompatibility, materials/tissue/ cellular interfaces, and toxicology of the dental and medical materials armamentarium will also be an integral part of the program. Didactic work will be offered to the trainees in an already established set of ongoing, regularly scheduled courses and seminar, approved and accredited for advanced degrees by the Northwestern University Graduate School, and taught by the three Ph.D. professors and two clinical adjunct faculty of the Division of Biological materials. The trainees will take their coursework and perform their research along with other students ina the Division who have other means of support. This permits meaningful interactions between the dentally qualified trainees and the engineering and biological science majors. Also the trainees benefit from the interaction with the already present students through Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL). Additional didactic work will be offered to all students in the Division by other departments within the University including Materials Science Chemistry, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, Oral Pathology, and Oral Biology. Research is carried out primarily in the Division Laboratories containing modern state of the art equipment for ultrastructure, corrosion, mechanical properties, cell culturing, rheology, spectral analysis, and specimen fabrication. Other equipment is available through cooperative agreements with the Materials Research Center and the Rehabilitation Engineering Center of the University.
