PhD students and postdocs: Join us at this course to gain a deeper and wider understanding of state-of-the-art metabolic bone research and take the opportunity to extend your network and enhance the potential for collaboration within and beyond national borders.
You will learn about new concepts and methods in bone biology, endocrine-mediated regulation of bone, and big data. You’ll compare and contrast experimental designs of clinical trials and basic science animal and cell-based studies. You’ll meet new peers with similar interests and work with them to design new collaborative research projects. And, you’ll get to visit the biotech company Ossiform.
The course is immediately followed by a symposium on clinical and basic research perspectives of metabolic bone disease. Participants of the course are welcome and encouraged to also participate in the symposium. Read more about the symposium here.
