I am an expatriate US physician-scientist now living in Sydney, Australia. I am working part-time as a Senior Research Officer at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research. I am Professor Emeritus of Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin, where I also held secondary appointments in Physiology and Cell Biology and a part-time appointment at the Clement J Zablocki VAMC, where I served as Endocrinology Division Chief. I maintained a specialist clinical practice in endocrinology through 2018, focused on complex metabolic bone disease. This included patients with severe comorbidities such as cancer, end stage renal disease, immobilizing conditions, and organ transplantation. It also included patients with rare hereditary diseases with skeletal manifestations, such as osteogenesis imperfecta, hypophosphatasia, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and undiagnosed connective tissue disorders. My practice was heavily skewed toward patients with multiple illnesses and high care needs. I am still a licensed US physician but am not an Australian licensed physician.My research has mostly addressed the genetics of bone biomechanical performance and bone development. My work has featured multiple technical approaches and has included efforts in both common and rare disorders, across the full scale of in vitro, animal model, and human studies. I have long-standing interest in congenital vertebral malformations and rare bone diseases. My current research addresses the interaction of physical performance, comorbidity, and fracture and features data from large epidemiological and administrative datasets.I remain actively engaged with the musculoskeletal health and science community. I hold editorial roles for multiple professional journals and regularly serve on grant review panels for multiple government and private funding agencies. I am committed to advocacy in support of patients with fractures and for scientific research related to musculoskeletal disorders. I am an early-stage investor in several biomedical ventures. These activities allow me to maintain a broad, international professional network spanning multiple medical and scientific specialties.In sum, I have exceptionally broad experience in medicine and biomedical research. I have remained professionally active in US retirement, even though I no longer care for patients. I remain eager to learn and contribute to advances in healthcare.Specialties: genetics, bone biology, endocrinology and metabolism, graduate education
