Summary
The foundation of this proposal leverages my current and planned program of osteoarthritis research to investigate the challenges of prevention, pain and delivery of care. These research initiatives are readily translatable, will make inroads into this prevalent and disabling disorder, have international impact and rely upon a close synergy between my research work and clinical practice.
This fellowship will allow the applicant to continue to study the major musculoskeletal diseases in Australia (osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis) using a combination of observational and interventional studies.
