Interest in Novel CSR Services

Please select your level of interest in the following services by the Center for Skeletal Research

Name

Translational Imaging and Biomechanics Core

Core overview: Translational Imaging and Biomechanics core is focused on bridging the basic science findings to clinical observations though imaging and biomechanical assessments to assist with studying the disease mechanism, biomarkers, and treatments for a range of skeletal disorders. The core offers a diverse range of services including: 1) Quantitative imaging to assess joint morphology and tissue structural properties 2) Experimental and computational evaluation of tissue mechanical properties 3) Clinical cohort identification (e.g., patients with certain musculoskeletal disorders) to build multi-center database of imaging, clinical and genomics data to help better interpret and validate the preclinical observations
Indicate the likelihood of your using this core in the next 3-4 years

Directed Differentiation Core Services

Core overview: Dr. Craft and her lab are available to discuss investigator-driven projects, experimental design, and provide hands-on training for generating working stocks of human iPSCs/ESCs and mouse PSCs, directed differentiations, deriving appropriate culture conditions and media compositions to support novel protocols, and troubleshooting existing protocols.
Indicate the likelihood of your using this core in the next 3-4 years

Arthritis model systems and analyses

Core overview: aims to address a need to support CSR musculoskeletal researchers to expand their studies from their original research toward the understanding of the mechanism of joint diseases, including osteoarthritis, osteoimmunology and joint structure pathology. The core directors will provide consultative services to CSR members to embark on a pilot project in these specific areas.
Consultative service 1: Advice on osteoarthritis models, including injury-induced animal models and human in vitro models, histological analysis of joint structures and advanced imaging technologies to visualize joint changes.
Indicate the likelihood of your using this service in the next 3-4 years

Consultative service 2: Advice on models of inflammatory arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis, as well as histological and osteoimmunological analysis of these models.
Indicate the likelihood of your using this service in the next 3-4 years

Consultative service 3: Advice on models of rheumatoid arthritis, including TNF mouse models, SKG model of RA, and serum transfer arthritis models as well as approaches of microCT, histology, morphology and AAV targeting.
Indicate the likelihood of your using this service in the next 3-4 years

Consultative service 4: Advice on the analysis of the enthesis, including pathophysiology, molecular techniques, histology, mouse models and imaging.
Indicate the likelihood of your using this service in the next 3-4 years

Spatial Transcriptomics

Core overview: Matt Warman

Indicate the likelihood of your using this core in the next 3-4 years

Translational Therapeutics Working Group

Core overview: The Translational Therapeutics Core will serve three main educational functions for the CSR community. First, we will work with CSR leadership to incorporate translational research topics into scientific programming for the annual CSR symposium and monthly Friday afternoon seminars. Second, we will provide ad hoc advice for CSR community members on emerging translational research projects in their laboratories. Given our respective areas of expertise, Jae Shim will provide advice for projects where macromolecules and gene therapy (RNAi, nanoparticle, AAV delivery) interventions are most appropriate, while Marc Wein will provide advice on small molecule, cell therapy, and CRISPR-based gene editing. Finally, if needed, we will help interested investigators identify appropriate institutional resources to assist with issues related to intellectual property and commercialization, and provide high-level advice regarding balancing ‘basic’ and ‘translational’ research activities within academic laboratories.
