The Moore Bone Laboratory
The Moore Bone Lab utilizes novel investigative tools to understand how bones and teeth develop, grow, maintain, and repair. Our goal is to inspire treatments that form mineralized tissue when and where it is needed in patients of all ages. Our approaches involve characterizing cell-intrinsic behavior and tissue niche factors that influence stem/progenitor cell activity, with emphasis on mechanotransduction and cell signaling pathways.
