Bone Disease Research

Our bones are what allow us to stand and move around; they also protect our organs and produce blood cells.

Bones make up a large portion of our bodies, and many diseases can affect them. UPMC Department of Pathology faculty study these diseases and infections of the skeletal system that can profoundly affect our health.
