The Goal of the Department of Musculoskeletal Biology is to understand the fundamental biochemistry and cell science that underlies ageing and disease of skeletal muscle, bone, joints, cartilage, tendon and ligament. We are also engaged in research to develop novel therapies for such chronic disorders including regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.
