Establishment of a National Network on Musculoskeletal Ageing

Staff

Lead researcher

Professor Cyrus Cooper

Prof Rheumatology Clinical Epidemiology

Research interests

  • Key research contributions have been:
  • discovery of the developmental influences which contribute to the risk of osteoporosis and hip fracture in late adulthood
  • demonstration that maternal vitamin D insufficiency is associated with sub-optimal bone mineral accrual in childhood
Other researchers

Professor Nicholas Harvey

Director/Professor

Research interests

  • Lifecourse epidemiology of osteoporosis and fragility fractures
  • Understanding mechanism and development of novel interventions across lifecourse to prevent fragility fractures

Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Interdisciplinary Musculoskeletal Health

The University hosts a substantial interdisciplinary community of researchers working to transform musculoskeletal health across the life course.
