Prof. Dr. VIVIANNE CHAPPUIS
,
Vivianne Chappuis is senior physician of the Department of
Oral Surgery and Stomatology at the University of Bern
(Switzerland). Following her studies in dental medicine at
the University of Zürich (Switzerland) with a DMD degree in
1997, she finished her doctorate in 1999.
After four years in private practice, she completed a
three-year specialization and was awarded as Oral Surgeon
from the Swiss Society of Dental Medicine in 2004 and
promoted the same year as senior. She is a well-known
expert and became heavily involved in continuing education
courses, performing live-surgeries, lectures and workshops
in national and international courses.
The clinical focus is on handling complex cases requiring
tissue regeneration in esthetic implant rehabilitations
including GBR and sinus grafting. During her two year
research fellowship from 2009-2011 at the Harvard School
of Dental Medicine in Boston (USA) she examined the molecular
basics of bone grafting and bone regeneration to
delineate the role of growth factors and bioactive molecules.
Her research project was supported by a highly
respected grant of the prestigious Musculoskeletal
Transplant Foundation (MTF, Edison, USA).
She returned in 2011 as a senior physician back to the
Department of Oral Surgery and Stomatology to follow her
research in the field of translational research related to
bone and tissue regeneration, digital 3D computational
biology, esthetic dental implant rehabilitations and others.
She received an ITI-Grant for her project „Ridge alterations“
by introducing innovative digital 3D technology, which
resulted in two publications in the Journal of Dental
Research, the highest ranked journal in the dental field. Her
recent publication won the first price in EAO research
award 2015. She has authored approximately 20 articles in
high-ranked and peer-reviewed journals (Total IF>60).
