1 in 2 women and 1 in 4 men over the age of 50 will suffer a fracture due to osteoporosis. The good news is there are many ways to lower your risk of breaking a bone.
By participating in a study you will help us better understand bone diseases and the resulting fractures.
The Bone Health Group at Columbia University is made up of doctors, researchers, and support staff all working together to achieve the next breakthrough in bone health.
More details coming soon. For now, please see the Division of Endocrinology website.
We are located at Columbia University Medical Center in New York City, a global leader in scientific research, health and medical education, and patient care. In addition to four clinical machines to measure bone density, we have a new machine that can be used to see detailed bone structure safely and non-invasively. There are currently only a few of these worldwide.
Follow us on Facebook and Twitter and check out our ongoing studies for which we are recruiting participants. More information about our research can also be found at the Division of Endocrinology website.
