In a traditionalist sense, one might consider research to be a solitary, microscopic endeavor. A scientist sits in a lab, examining slides or observing chemical reactions. It may seem lonely, unconnected from the larger world and everyday health care.
Operating quietly behind the scenes, one lab is doing its part to support the school, patients, dental and medical providers and research throughout the school and beyond.
