N1 - Funding Information: Bone biology, saddles dentistry and medicine, human and veterinary alike. Use of both animal and human models demonstrated how LeGeros translated the language of dentistry beyond its classical bounds. Through elegant methodology, LeGeros applied three‐dimensional image mapping to communicate ovariectomized osteoporotic rat models for a multidisciplinary audience. She garnered consistent and sustained funding from multidisciplinary sources, owing in part to imaging, as it communicates the language of dentistry into a more common language of imaging used in medicine and bone science. For instance, the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) funded two studies which concluded calcium phosphate suspensions with magnesium, zinc, and fluoride increase bone mineral density and femur strength and show promise in treating osteoporosis (Otsuka et al., 2008 ; Tokudome et al., 2009 ). This pattern of recognition by a multidisciplinary variety of funding sources endured and continued to produce strong findings. A 2012 investigation, co‐funded by the NIH, National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Disease (NIAMS), and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology of Japan, Suzuki et al. ( 2012 ) reported dietary estrogen contributed to bone loss and were supported by later investigations (Nakada et al., 2011 ). As such, LeGeros was attracting multidisciplinary funding from international sources. Additionally, in a 2012 study funded by the NIBIB, NIH, NIAMS, and HHS, Mijares et al. ( 2012 ) concluded that SBM minimizes the effects of bone loss mediated by a mineral‐deficient diet and showed promise in augmenting dental implant sites through the ability to stimulate bone remodeling.
