Alan Brook is a leading figure internatioanlly in the the application of Complexity Science, Network Science and Modelling Influence on the development and functioning of the oral tissues. He has over 225 publications and over 270 abstracts of presentations with some 5,200 citations. Alan's research has ranged from basic science to clinical care to eductional research, arising from the varied aspects of his career as a clinical academic.
Clinically, hhis research has generated innovative diagnostic and treatment procedures for several oral conditions. This was combined with being Chief Executive Officer for a combined industry/ university research unit. In 2005, Alan was awarded the highest level (Platinum) NHS Clinical Excellence Award.
His eductaional research arose from curriculum innovations at undergraduate and postgraduate levels while holding the position of Head of Department and Deanship roles at several Universities and being President of the European Commission Dental Education Advisory Committee.
The major current and ongoing theme of his research relates to the development of the dentoalveolar complex from genotype to phenotype with an emphasis on the interactions between genetic, epigentic, and environmental factors. In 2014, Alan was awarded a Higher Doctorate, DDSc, of the University of Adelaide based on an international assessment of his published research. Since then, the work on Complexity, Networks and Models has developed with multicentre, multidiscplinary collaborators that Alan has inititated on "Hypodontia from genotype to phenotype" and "Tooth and dental arch variation intercat within a multilayer complex interactive network".
Research Interests
The overarching research theme is the application of Complexity Science, Network Science, and Multimodel approaches to Oro-facial development and function. Publications over the past decade have shown that the development and function of the dentoalveolar tissues are Complex Adaptive Systems based on Interactive Networks.
Recent publications address how the complex systems of the teeth and dental arches interact during development as a Multilayer Complex Interative Networks. These studies investiagate both modern and archaeological human samples.
Research Projects
Current:
- Developmental interactions in human dentition: the relationaship between variation in tooth number, size and shape, with dental arch morphology.
- 3D measurements using a new technique for teeth and dental arches in hypodontia and control patients. This project includes collaborators in New Zealand, U.S.A, U.K, Romania and Japan. Funding from International collaboration group memebers and from the Paul Kwok Lee Reseach Bequest.
- Development of teeth and dental arches in twins.
- Guest Editor for a Special Issue of ythe journal Genes entitled "Genes, Interactions and Dental Development: Advances in Understanding Genetics, Epigenetics and Environmental Interactions". This publication is due for completion in December 2022, with a subsquent book for which Alan will be the Editor.
