2019 ASBMR Conference

Dr Taher Mahmud was delighted to attend the 2019 ASBMR conference in Orlando.

The ASBMR Annual Meeting is the world’s largest and most diverse meeting in the bone, mineral and musculoskeletal research field, attracting more than 3,000 attendees from more than 70 countries, including clinicians and researchers, representing all career levels and specializing in a variety of disciplines.

In particular Dr Mahmud attended the talk from Dr Graham Russell on the 50th Anniversary of Bisphosphonates (drugs that usually result in an increase in bone density).

It’s been a fascinating journey from the initial hypothesis and tissue culture studies in 1969 to where we are today with an effective osteoporosis drug.
