🎒 Back-to-school season is here – and so is the reminder that healthy bones start early At ECTS, we believe that investing in bone health in young people means investing in healthier futures. ✅ Encourage daily movement ✅ Support calcium+vitamin D intake ✅ Raise awareness of bone health in schools

attending #ORS2025 in Phoenix? Don’t miss our workshop about the impact of psychological stress on the musculoskeletal system. I will show our data about how stress in different life phases (during pregnancy, prenatal, childhood, ) could affect your bones 🦴 and the influence of the gut microbiome 🦠

My lab is happy to host a student from North America for an internship funded by the DAAD this summer. In times like now, we need to strengthen the international bonds in science, no matter what politics is doing.

Does someone has a .stl file from a whole mouse skeleton based on microCT data and willing to share it? We can’t find ours since we experienced a loss of old CT data on our sever.

A quick introduction as there is a mass migration to Bluesky at the moment: Hi, I am Melanie, apl. professor for orthopedic and trauma research! Bone is my passion, as it is such a fascinating organ which interacts with so many other tissues in the human body. Movement is life, not only for bone!
