Call For Abstracts

Dear Friends:

We trust all is well with you! It has been tough for the last couple of years with the pandemic, but we are ready to resume the TMJ Bioengineering conference in-person.  We are inviting you to submit an abstract to the TMJ Bioengineering Conference (TMJ7), which will take place on May 18-19, 2022 in Pittsburgh, PA.

The Program Committee has selected the following thematic areas for this year’s Conference:

  • Bone, cartilage, and stem cell biology
  • Cell, tissue, and joint biomechanics       
  • Biomaterials for bone and cartilage tissue engineering
  • Comparative aspects of animal models of TMD
  • Diagnosis and imaging of TMDs
  • Treatment and surgery of the TMJ
  • TMJ Pain and inflammation

Abstract Submission Deadline: January 10, 2022                      

Notification of Acceptance: January 31, 2022

We suggest that you please encourage your young investigators to submit abstracts on new and novel studies. Those abstracts that are based on high risk/high payoff translational research will be given priority to be accepted and presented. Please make plans and register early to join us as the attendance at the Conference will be limited to 100 participants to facilitate more discussion.

You may use your abstract that you submitted in 2020.  Just let me know if that is what you want to do.

Instructions for submission and the format of the abstract can be found at the Conference website: http://tmjconference.org  

With best regards,

 TMJ7 Planning Committee
