Musculoskeletal Genomics Group
The focus of the Musculoskeletal Genomics Research Group is to combine information from statistical and molecular genetics studies to identify high potential drug targets for treating patients with osteoporosis. The Research Group has a strong emphasis on multidisciplinary and collaborative research.
Its recent studies provide evidence that mice and fish are valuable preclinical models for identifying cellular and genetic determinants of human skeletal health.
Current funding sources include the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), American Society of Bone and Mineral Research and the Lions Dunning-Orlich Foundation.
