Prof. P. Arany: Stem cell differentiation and regeneration of tissue by PBM

06.03.2019

Prof. Praveen Arany gives an overview of the state of research on the potential of PBM to regenerate tissue. The focus is on dentistry as a prime example.

Contents of the interview

Stem cell stimulation in vivo, regeneration of dentine and interdental tissue, regulation of cell crosstalk by PBM, mucositis, influence of PBM on the microbiome, etc.

Prof. Praveen Arany (BDS, MDS, MMsc, PHD, University at Buffalo, NY) is President of WALT (World Association for Photobiomodulation/PBM). In this interview he talks to Prof. med. Dent Tilman Fritsch about the state of photobiological research in dentistry.?Praveen's research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of PBM and its clinical translations. He is an internationally recognized expert in PBM and is on the editorial board of 7 scientific journals including Photomedicine and Photobiomodulation. He has published over 70 peer-reviewed publications, holds 4 patents and has won several awards including the NCI Young Investigators Award, the WHS Young Investigators Award, the ASLMS Horace Forumoto Prize and the ALDĀ“s Eugene Siedner Prize.
