Abstract

The Institute of Dentistry at Barts and The School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London, has seen much change since 1857 when surgeon dentist, H. J. Barrett, was appointed to The London to oversee the extraction of teeth. However, the mission remains the same: provision of excellent patient care through our education and research to improve the oral health and general health of our local population, but also with global impact.The Institute of Dentistry is embedded in a fundamentally multidisciplinary environment of the wider university and this is reflected in our research activity. The available complementary skills in cell and molecular biology, microbiology, materials science, chemistry, biophysics, clinical science and population health allows us to undertake basic science research, patient- and population-based research and clinical biometric research.Our Centre for Teaching and Innovation is a catalyst for educational research, including that related to new technologies and the expansion of e-learning, to ultimately inform local practice and the experience of our students.
