项目摘要

The UCSF Core Center for Musculoskeletal Biology and Medicine Skeletal Biology and Biomechanics (SBB) Core supports a large and robust research base of investigators. This diverse group of basic and clinical investigators has made major contributions to the understanding of musculoskeletal health and disease. However, the ongoing research efforts by these and other investigators remain insufficient to prevent the rapidly increasing occurrence of many acquired musculoskeletal diseases in our aging population. Thus, acceleration of research that advances the prevention and treatment of skeletal diseases is urgently needed. Solutions will require a more systems-based approach with integrated research strategies and investigator communities. To meet this challenge, the SBB Core facilitates musculoskeletal research at UCSF by providing integrated, cost- effective, and efficient access to rigorous musculoskeletal biology and biomechanics services. The SBB Core serves and cultivates the musculoskeletal research community across multiple campuses and disciplines by offering users seamless access to services, with Core sites at the two main campuses, easy digital conferencing, and events at multiple locations. The successful implementation of the SBB Core is anticipated to not only reduce research expenses and increase the output and quality of data, but also to produce robust in-depth analyses of samples and animal models through integration of different aspects of musculoskeletal biology and biomechanics. The Core’s adoption of sophisticated and powerful new services will streamline quantitative analyses of musculoskeletal tissues to complement and encourage the much-needed application of big data approaches to this field. Through training and education, the SBB Core will promote the entry of new investigators to the field and will foster a community of versatile musculoskeletal researchers with a broad set of skills and critical thinking.

加州大学旧金山分校肌肉骨骼生物学和医学核心中心骨骼生物学和生物力学 (SBB) Core 支持庞大而强大的研究人员研究基础。研究人员为了解肌肉骨骼健康和疾病做出了重大贡献。然而，这些和其他研究人员正在进行的研究工作仍然不足以防止迅速发生在我们的人口老龄化中，许多获得性肌肉骨骼疾病的发生率不断增加。迫切需要促进骨骼疾病预防和治疗的研究解决方案。需要一种更加基于系统的方法，具有综合的研究策略和研究者群体。为了应对这一挑战，SBB Core 通过提供集成的、成本低廉的技术，促进 UCSF 的肌肉骨骼研究有效且高效地获得严格的肌肉骨骼生物学和生物力学服务。通过以下方式服务和培养跨多个校园和学科的肌肉骨骼研究社区通过位于两个主校区的核心站点、轻松的数字会议、 SBB 核心的成功实施预计不仅会在多个地点举行。减少研究费用并提高数据的产出和质量，同时也能产生稳健的深入研究通过整合肌肉骨骼生物学的不同方面来分析样本和动物模型 The Core 采用先进而强大的新服务将在数量上简化流程。对肌肉骨骼组织进行分析，以补充和鼓励急需的大数据应用通过培训和教育，SBB 核心将促进新人进入该领域。研究人员到该领域，并将培养一个由多才多艺的肌肉骨骼研究人员组成的社区，拥有广泛的知识技能和批判性思维。
