Andrea Alford donates to the ASBMR Fund for Research and Education because 100% of the donation will directly support young investigator travel to the ASBMR Annual Meeting. Donate this #GivingTuesday and #FuelTheFire: asbmr.org/donations

On #GivingTuesday, the ASBMR community raised $8,206 for the ASBMR Fund for Research & Education to support young investigators! But the giving isn't over – we'll fill our bone thermometer as donations come in! Help shape the future of research today! ow.ly/S6rN50Ul2S2

Was a reflection of the outstanding students, post docs, faculty, staff and administrators in the Division. I’m grateful to all of you!

Bone mass growth peaks (3-6x normal rate): Girls =~12 yr (10-14 yr) Boys =~14 yr (13-16 yr) It's by far the most 'opportunity & vulnerability' window. Outside of major nutritional deficiencies (Ca, D, etc.) - nothing helps more than physical activity. It's not even close.

40% of total body bone mineral density happens during this ~4 yr window. They finish with ~95% of what they'll have as adults. Please, do whatever you possibly can to help kids, especially girls, be as physically active as possible during this time. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC47…

I am thrilled to release our latest preprint from Annemarie Lang, out today bioRxiv! Local erythropoiesis directs oxygen availability in bone fracture repair biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A paper thread:

When you match the “look-a-like” taxidermied mouse that your co-workers gave you. Zoom in and appreciate the black boots, polo, and glasses on mousy Joe. 🤣

Celebrating a proud milestone today as Heather Buck is hooded for her PhD from Stains' lab—ready to advance the science of bone biology! #PhD #HoodingDay #WomenInSTEM

What if we could regenerate bone using a medication already on the market? At University of Maryland School of Dentistry, researchers are exploring how metformin — commonly used to treat diabetes — could be repurposed to stimulate bone growth and healing. #BreakthroughsCantWaitUMB #BoneRegeneration

Is taurine an aging biomarker? Apparently not. Do taurine levels correlate with any sort of health status? Apparently not. Were prior high-profile claims as to the benefits of taurine reproducible? Apparently they were not. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
