Kyushu Dental University will host 'The 1st Asian Symposium on Oral Health Sciences, Kitakyushu' over two days on June 26 (Fri) and 27 (Sat), 2026.

This symposium is held to promote educational and research exchanges in oral health in the Asian region, aiming for further development of international joint research, cultivation of young researchers, and inter-university collaboration.

At this event, researchers, faculty, and graduate students from Chung Shan Medical University in Taiwan and Rangsit University in Thailand will gather in Kitakyushu to exchange views on the latest trends in oral health research.

As a 'comprehensive university of oral medicine,' Kyushu Dental University promotes education, research, and clinical care that contribute to overall health, quality of life, and healthy life expectancy, starting with the oral cavity. After the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of discussing in person and sharing research environments, alongside the convenience of online exchanges, has been re-recognized.

Through lectures, poster presentations, campus/research facility tours, and networking, this symposium aims to form a foundation for continuous international joint research and personnel exchange.
