F10B: Physiology and Pathobiology of Musculoskeletal, Oral, and Skin Systems

[Cardiovascular and Respiratory Sciences (CVR) Integrated Review Group]


[ F10B Roster ]

F10B reviews fellowship applications for basic and clinical aspects of musculoskeletal, oral, and skin sciences. Approaches include clinical studies, animal models of disease, and in vitro studies of the physiology of these organ systems and of their function in health or disease. Examples of specific areas covered are listed below.

  • Organ system physiology and pathobiology studies that utilize genetic and molecular biological approaches.
  • Experimental models, clinical studies and studies on the mechanisms of disease states including biomechanics and exercise physiology involving musculoskeletal systems
  • Toxicology related to musculoskeletal, oral, and skin system
  • Underlying pathophysiology of muscle physiology addressing the role of actin and myosin and other factors in skeletal muscle contractility.
  • Effects of immune processes and infection on target tissue physiology.
