More than 10 million people in the United States have osteoporosis, a skeletal disorder that causes bones to become weak and fragile as a result of low bone mass. The condition makes people more susceptible to fractures, which can impair their ability to live independently and even threaten their lives. The social and economic burden of osteoporotic fractures is substantial. Reducing osteoporosis prevalence and hip fracture incidence are among the major objectives of Healthy People 2020, the U.S. Department of Health& Human Services ’ national health promotion and disease prevention initiativ...

Trans-NIH GeroScience Interest Group (GSIG)
Dr. Cliff Rosen is a Senior Scientist and the Director of the Center for Clinical and Translational Research at the Maine Medical Center Research Institute (MMCRI). His laboratory studies the mesenchymal stem cell fate as it relates to the switch between pre-adipocytes and pre-osteoblasts. The focus of these efforts relates to cell autonomous factors such as substrate utilization and bioenergetics of the osteoblast and cell non-autonomous determinants such as parathyroid hormone and sympathetic tone. Dr. Rosen ’ s current projects, supported by the NIH, revolve around the origi...
