Dr. Doug Phanstiel, PI & Dr. Richard Loeser, Co-PI, Receive $2.5 Million NIH NIAMS Grant: “Identifying novel osteoarthritis risk genes using GWAS, chondrocyte genomics, & genome editing”

The innovative research seeks to identify putative causal knee OA risk variants, map them to their target genes, and quantify their phenotypic impact in chondrocytes.

Dr. Brian Diekman and Dr. Karen Mohlke are co-investigators in this research project.
