OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
My lab is interested in the formation and maintenance of a healthy musculoskeletal system. We are currently focused on studying how individual muscle tissue bundles are formed and the role of periosteal cells in bone formation and homeostasis.
I will discuss our recent work to characterise the role of irregular connective tissue fibroblasts in organising muscle fibres into individual muscle bundles and how disruption of their normal activity can lead to muscle dysplasia/hypoplasia.
