Research in the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) Intramural Research Program (IRP) revolves around five main research areas: Craniofacial Developmental, Cell and Matrix Biology; Epithelial and Salivary Gland Biology and Dysfunction; Immunology and Inflammation; Sensory Biology; and Skeletal Biology. Within these research areas, the scientists are tasked with elucidating the molecular mechanisms that underlie a plethora of biological processes as they relate to both basic research and disease manifestations in a clinical setting.
One of the main scientific approaches used by researchers in the NIDCR is the imaging and analysis of fluorescently labeled proteins and reporter constructs in both fixed and living tissues and organs. The Zeiss 880 confocal microscope with Airyscan superresolution module is used by our researchers for high temporal and spatial resolution imaging of fluorescent samples.
