Major research initiative explores how our bones and muscles age, new ways to block their decline

(Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University) With age, the form and function of our bones and muscles drop off, putting us as increased risk for frailty and falls. Now researchers at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University are dissecting just what happens to the stem cells that make the tissues, which help keep us upright, with an eye on improving our healthspan.
