JBMR® Editor‑in‑Chief Raj Thakker was featured on the latest “Bone Up” episode. He talks calcium‑sensing pathways, bone loss risk, and the impact of genetic diagnosis.
🎧 Listen:
We look forward to continued partnership with NIAMS as, together, we remain committed to research that betters the lives of patients worldwide.
This moment highlights the continued need for strong federal commitment to research funding and evidence‑based policy. Ongoing investment in bone, mineral, and musculoskeletal science remains essential to reducing national healthcare burden and improving outcomes for patients.
As NIAMS moves into a period of transition, ASBMR welcomes Dr. Anna E. Mazzucco as interim director.
ASBMR extends its appreciation to Dr. Lindsey A. Criswell for her leadership at NIAMS and her long‑standing support of musculoskeletal research. Her scientific leadership strengthened the partnership between NIAMS and ASBMR and advanced progress on conditions that impact millions.
