Webinars

Webinars are hosted by the ISBM Early Career Investigator Committee and are open to members and non-members of ISBM at all career stages. Priority is given to Early Career Investigators to introduce themselves and meet the speaker at the end of the webinar. Our goal is to support students and fellows that are interested in joining an active community of researchers focused on the quantitative imaging and analysis of skeletal tissues (histomorphometry, immunostaining, lineage tracing, live imaging, CT, tissue clearing, morphometrics, spatial transcriptomics, etc).

June 2023 Webinar – “Multiscale Bone Biomechanics and Imaging”

During this webinar, Dr. Ralph Müller will delve into the intricate field of multiscale bone biomechanics and imaging. From milliseconds to years and nanometers to centimeters, bone biomechanics require integrating information across various scales. Explore Dr. Müller’s research, which combines mechanics and microstructural imaging, employing computer simulations and experimental validation. Discover image-guided techniques that provide 4D visualization of fracture progression at the nanometer scale. Gain insights into the fascinating world of bone mechanobiology, where complex interactions between cells and their microenvironments drive the process of bone remodeling. Understand how mechanical cues influence cellular responses and uncover the latest advances in studying bone mechanobiology across multiple scales. Join us to unravel the mysteries of bone biomechanics and imaging!

May 2023 Webinar – “Bone and exercise: From Childhood to Outer Space”

During this webinar, Dr. Leigh Gabel will discuss the importance of movement (physical activity and exercise) during childhood and adolescence for developing a healthy skeleton and how different imaging modalities (e.g., DXA, pQCT, HR-pQCT) help us understand the intricacies of bone accrual. Dr. Gabel will also discuss how prolonged unloading (i.e., long-duration spaceflight) impacts bone microarchitecture and strength during adulthood.
