Special Issue on Bone Health

Bone Health focuses on the biological, clinical, and public health aspects of maintaining and restoring skeletal integrity across the lifespan. It invites contributions that explore bone physiology, metabolism, and remodeling, as well as the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of conditions such as osteoporosis, fractures, and metabolic bone disorders. Topics may include advances in imaging technologies, biomaterials, regenerative medicine, nutrition, and pharmacological interventions affecting bone density and strength. By integrating basic research with clinical practice and population health perspectives, this issue aims to enhance understanding of bone health and support the development of effective strategies for improving musculoskeletal well-being.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Bone Health. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Bone biology and physiology
• Bone metabolism and remodeling
• Osteoporosis research
• Fracture prevention and management
• Metabolic bone disorders
• Bone imaging and diagnostics
• Orthopedic and musculoskeletal health
• Bone regeneration and tissue engineering
• Biomaterials for bone repair
• Nutrition and bone health
• Endocrine regulation of bone
• Pediatric bone development
• Aging and bone loss
• Bone pharmacology and therapeutics
• Physical activity and bone strength
• Genetic factors in bone health

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Bone Health” should be selected during your submission.
