Description
The musculoSKeletal Innovative research Lab (mSKIL - University of Liège, Belgium), previously known since 1995 as the Bone and Cartilage Research Unit, has joint the CIRM (Center for Interdisciplinary Research On Medicines) in 2019. Our lab is highly specialized in the pre-clinical and clinical investigation of drugs, food supplements and medical devices used in the treatment of MusculoSKeletal (MSK) disorders and rheumatic diseases, particularly in osteoarthritis, sarcopenia and intervertebral disk degeneration. We have an extensive expertise in the study of the pathophysiological events involved in these diseases, in the research of soluble biochemical markers and in the understanding of the mechanisms of action of treatments.
