Funded Activity Summary

Musculoskeletal damage is a major burden on individuals and our health care system. My research program will focus on improving bone health in three important areas: (1) children’s growth plate injury and growth defects; (2) bone loss and bone marrow defects from cancer chemotherapy; (3) ensuring that bone grows healthily in early life. The overall intent of this research is to develop new therapies when bone doesn’t grow well, or is damaged.
