Yesterday was World Osteoporosis Day, a reminder that bone health depends on more than calcium. Polluted indoor air can weaken bones through inflammation and toxins. Clean air may be one of the quiet protectors of strength as we age. airsupportproject.com/bones-breath...

Osteoporosis is often seen as a disease that primarily affects older women. But older men can have brittle bones too, and lack of awareness and testing for osteoporosis can result in painful and life-threatening bone fractures. bit.ly/3WPsorn

Huge congratulations to our Honours student Bella Pearce, who submitted her Honours thesis today! Her thesis investigated femur intra-cortical bone remodelling variation with age and social status in a sample of medieval females.

Get your abstracts submitted! Our team has already done so and we look forward to going to Auckland for #ashb2025

We are pleased to offer Student Conference Support Grants for our 2025 meeting. If you are an ASHB student member and intend on presenting either a paper or poster, consider applying for financial support here: forms.gle/77WCN3ym3fGQ... Applications close 11:59 NZDT on Monday 13th of October.

People who skip breakfast and eat late dinners may have an increased risk of developing osteoporosis, according to a new study published in the JES. Read more in @endocrinesociety.bsky.social: https://bit.ly/41WLdMg #JES #osteoporosis @endosocjournals.bsky.social#JES

Have you got questions about how much calcium your bones need and if you need a supplement? We’ve answered some of your most common questions at theros.org.uk/calcium

Each of your 206 bones is a living organ! Microscopic view of compact bone at 1000x magnification, showing an osteon with a central canal surrounded by concentric lamellae. Tiny canaliculi radiate outward, connecting osteocytes (bone cells) within the bone matrix. 🦴✨ #Histology #Anatomy
