Joseph P. Bidwell studies the biology of bone, focusing on how cells build and maintain the skeleton and what goes wrong in conditions like osteoporosis (a disease of weakened bones). A recurring theme is a protein called Nmp4 (Nuclear Matrix Protein 4) and how removing or altering it affects bone quality and the body's response to bone-building hormone therapies. The work also touches on how these molecular factors control gene activity and connect to the immune system.
Publication output has been low and intermittent over the last decade, averaging about one paper per year in recent years.
