Restoration of Orofacial Tissues: A Biomimetic/Tissue Engineering Approach: The purpose of this RFA is to encourage biomimetics and tissue engineering research in the areas of orofacial tissue and organ repair and regeneration. The ultimate goal of this initiative is a systems approach to the design and development of new biocompatible/inductive materials that can stimulate cells and tissues to regenerate and/or materials that can become integrated into the body. In particular, this initiative encourages: o biomimetic/tissue engineering approaches for the restoration/regeneration of tooth and periodontal structures; o tissue engineering and stem/progenitor cell approaches for the construction of an artificial salivary gland and for the repair/regeneration of Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) structure; and o use of new diagnostic imaging technologies and novel molecular imaging probes to monitor key events during tissue repair/regeneration. In the context of this initiative, integrative, multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary research approaches from several different scientific disciplines such as cell and molecular biology, genetics, physics, engineering, computer and clinical sciences and other relevant systems are encouraged. Applicants may propose hypothesis-driven, discovery-driven, developmental, or design-directed research.
