Research Projects:
1. Bone Metabolism in Black Bears: Analysis of serum hormones and bone remodeling markers in hibernating bears Hibernating bears as a model for preventing disuse osteoporosis |
2. Bone Cell Mechanotransduction: Mechanically induced bone cell signaling and gene expression
Osteoblastic cells have refractory periods for fluid-flow-induced intracellular calcium oscillations for short bouts of flow and display multiple low-magnitude oscillations during long-term flow
