Our Mission

The mission of the Center for Musculoskeletal Research is to support a community of musculoskeletal investigators allowing them to enhance the impact of their research, to foster collaborations among members of this community and to continue to expand the impact of the Center by outreach efforts.  The Center is particularly interested in supporting junior investigators and those from groups underrepresented in STEM, welcoming the participation of all musculoskeletal biologists regardless of gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability.
