Human skeletal development and correct bone, cartilage, joint and muscle function are determined by complex interactions between developmental signalling pathways. Genetic and acquired disorders affecting these tissues are common. The group’s research aims to understand the molecular basis of these disorders to improve diagnosis and genetic counselling, identify new therapeutic targets and test new treatments to ultimately improve the quality of life for children with these debilitating conditions
