Focus: models of pathological bone loss including osteoporosis, breast cancer metastasis to bone, inflammatory arthritis and osteomyelitis

Focus: synthesis of concepts from cell biology, physiology, and bioengineering to study the relationships between the nervous system and the skeleton. We have a directed interest in understanding how neural signals contribute to skeletal homeostasis, and how perturbations to this system contribute to bone loss, impaired healing, and changes in metabolism.

Focus: changes at the molecular and cellular level in skeletal muscle and how they affect muscle structure and function.
