Nigel Loveridge

I’ve had a lifelong background in biological sciences research, with much of the last 25 years focused on musculoskeletal research. I started in Joe Chayen’s laboratory at the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology and spent sabbaticals at McGill university in Montreal (Prof David Goltzman) and at the University of Zurich (Prof Jan Fischer) before leaving London to establish a Bone Growth and Metabolism Group at the Rowett Institute in Aberdeen. During this time, with Colin Farquharson, we used sensitive in situ approaches to analyse growth plate development with a particular interest in tibial dyschondroplasia.

After moving to Cambridge to join Jonathan Reeve I have concentrated on the aetiology of intracapsular hip fracture and in particular how clustering of cortical remodelling may result in rapid changes in porosity and cortical thickness. Using structural and in situ biochemical approaches, the work has shed light on the way that osteocytes are involved in the processes by which remodelling weakens the skeleton.

I have recently been appointed as Editor in Chief of Cell Biochemistry and Function and it is my firm view that progress in musculosketal research is entirely dependent on the equal but integrated contributions of basic scientists and clinicians for which the Bone Research Society provides an excellent forum.
