Opportunities for Young Investigators to Attend the AAOS/CORR/ORS/CMH-UCD/SWHR Musculoskeletal Sex Differences Throughout the Lifespan Research Symposium
Dates: July 30 – August 1, 2014 Rosemont, Illinois Participants: Orthopaedic surgeons, Young Investigators, researchers, industry representatives, government representatives, and other medical specialties (by invitation only). Purpose: Much of the research on therapies for musculoskeletal disorders has involved the use of young adult animals, and for a number of experimental reasons, these animals have been female in the case of osteoporosis and male in the case of therapeutics. As a result, our understanding of these conditions as they present throughout life, and for the other sex, is limited. The 2014...
