Funded Activity Summary

In Australia, there is an increasing incidence of fractures and skeletal related problems that require surgical intervention and rehabilitation therapy. These are complex processes that involve the coordination of different bone and immune cells. We will investigate important regulatory molecules that mediate bone-cartilage stem cell recruitment and development during normal skeletal growth and remodelling. This study will help advance therapies for fracture repair and joint deterioration.
