Research Update Session: Women’s Health and Pregnancy

Join the OIF for a Research Update on Women’s Health and Pregnancy

OI community members joined the OIF for a conversation with Dr. Deborah Krakow, OIF Medical Advisory Council (MAC) member and Professor and Chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology at UCLA, and Tracy Hart, OIF CEO, to discuss current research in women’s health and pregnancy.

The Brittle Bone Disorders Consortium (BBDC) is a multicenter initiative that focuses on understanding and providing better treatment options for osteogenesis imperfecta. The first BBDC update with Dr. Brendan Lee and Cameron Penn can be viewed here.

As a partner of the OIF, the BBDC has 3 major goals:

  1. Gain a better understanding of all genetic forms of OI
  2. Expand treatment options for those with OI
  3. Help guide the next generation of physicians and scientists.
