4th International Workshop on Advances in the Molecular Pharmacology
and
Therapeutics of Bone Disease
Oxford, UK
6-8 July 2009
Followed by International Symposium
on Paget's Disease, 8-9 July 2009
Scientific Committee
Chairman:
Graham Russell (Oxford, UK)
Co-Chairs:
Cyrus Cooper (Oxford and Southampton, UK)
Jack Martin (Melbourne, Australia)
About the meeting
This workshop is designed to review and discuss some of the
recent advances in the genetics, cell biology, biochemistry
and pharmacology of bone. This is intended to provide a basis
not only for understanding the molecular mechanisms of action
of drugs already known to act on the skeleton, but also to
provide a rational basis for developing novel therapies in
the future.
The workshop should be of interest to all scientists involved
in drug discovery and the pharmacology of bone, as well as
to clinical scientists involved in translating this new knowledge
into clinical practice.
The meeting is approved for CPD
Topics to include:
- Orientation – introduction to cell biology
- Cellular regulation of bone metabolism
- Current and emerging therapies for diseases of bone
- Techniques and imaging
