Message from ASBMR President Laura Calvi, M.D. – March 14, 2024 Focus on Advocacy
Dear Colleagues, The Society is currently undertaking numerous activities and initiatives aimed at advocating for policies that address the prevalence and social-economic impact of musculoskeletal (MSK) diseases. It is critical for ASBMR to highlight the chronic underfunding of MSK research, out of proportion to the prevalence and impact of MSK disorders.
Our activities engage both government agencies and elected representatives with the goal of raising awareness and support for increased funding for the important research our members undertake and for enhancing support for the next generation of MSK researchers and clinicians. Let me share with you some of our recent actions aimed at influencing policies, regulations and funding priorities.
