CCMBM Summer Update
The Core Center for Musculoskeletal Biology & Medicine (CCMBM) defines itself by emphasizing musculoskeletal-specific education and services that are critical to its members but not available elsewhere in the university system.
|
|
“From basic science to clinical research, we constantly seek to push scientific boundaries by collaborating broadly across the scientific community,” said Dr. Thomas P. Vail, MD, chair of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. “With the addition of Dr. Collins and Dr. Hernandez to our Department, we significantly strengthen the ability to reach beyond knowledge barriers and further our understanding of systemic factors involved in musculoskeletal health and disease.”
|
|
“Both Dr. Collins and Dr. Hernandez bridge the outstanding musculoskeletal research in the MSK Center with leading scientists throughout UCSF, including those who study metabolism, the microbiome, and stem cells” said Dr. Tamara Alliston, PhD, Professor and Director of the UCSF Musculoskeletal Center. “We welcome them to our faculty and look forward to exciting discoveries and new collaborations that will emerge from each of their laboratories.” Read more >>
