International Faculty Development Course - IFDC Follow-up & Trial Experience Course -
A one-day International Faculty Development Course took place successfully on April 24th 2025.
Presenters and participants gathered at CU (Chulalongkorn University)-Science Tokyo Research and Education Collaboration Center. Presenters were able to share their presentations about clinical cases or research projects and receive personalized consultations and guidance on them from Science Tokyo faculty, Professor Manabu Kanazawa and Dr. Yuriko Komagamine. Audience participants were able to attend online, see their peers' presentations, and join the Q&A and discussions, which might be beneficial for their future careers.
●April 24, Thursday

Session 4:
"Overcoming medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws: from risk prediction and prevention to advanced treatment in pre-clinical and clinical research perspectives" by Dr. Sirimanas Jiaranuchart (Oral Surgery)
Participants were able to learn about how laboratory and clinical research around pathophysiology and predictive signs in patients using antiresorptive drugs, is being undertaken to develop effective prevention and treatment strategies for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws.

Session 5:
"Dental restoration challenges in patients with genetic disorders" by Dr. Kittisak Sanon (Operative Dentistry)
Participants were able to appreciate the restorative treatment challenges patients with amelogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta pose. They could learn how new adhesive restorative treatment involving CAD/CAM restorations together with a focus on patient-centred care could help manage these patients.
