Sleep matters for joint health!
In our new paper led by Dr Liz Rowlands, we studied sleep habits of 500,000 people. Osteoarthritis risk was highest with <6 hours of nightly sleep and significantly increased by shift work.

9 Federally Funded Scientific Breakthroughs That Changed Everything
We donβt always know what questions will change the world.
But public science has a way of answering them anyway.
Federal science funding isnβt just lines in a budget. Itβs a vote for progress, for possibility.

Most studies of cartilage mechanobiology study the upregulation of chondrocyte gene expression and biosynthesis with mechanical loading. Check out our recent paper where Daniel Palmer studied the down-regulated "mechanome" with Piezo1 or TRPV4 activation. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
