Time: Thursdays 12.30pm/Dydd Iau 12.30yp

04 February 2010 Host: Dr Jeff Davies	Professor D Carter School of Biosciences, Cardiff University	*Transgenic studies of neuroanl transcriptional regulation*
25 February 2010 Host: Professor M Sheldon	Professor Jo Price Dept. of Clinical Veterinary Science, Bristol University	Bone and Sex: Common pathways, different objectives. Post-menopausal osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass and a high risk of fracture. The lifetime risk of a fragility fracture in a 50 year old Caucasian American woman is 45 percent and in a man 13 percent. The association between declining bone mass and bioavailable estrogen in both sexes is strong, but the causal relationship has yet to be defined. Professor Jo Price and her colleague Lance Lanyon, have worked extensively on the relationship between bone health, loading, and sex over the last 20 years. Zaman et al Loading-related regulation of gene expression in bone… Bone. 2010 Epub. Moustafa A et al. Functional adaptation to mechanical loading. Bone. 2009 44, 930.
