Bone: A rigid body tissue that makes up our body’s skeleton.
Craft: Skill and experience

Bone Craft combines the expertise and experience of the Translational Genomics of the Skeleton team at Erasmus MC. Our group is committed to transforming genomic discoveries into tangible clinical solutions for individuals vulnerable to musculoskeletal disorders and other complex diseases.

Lines of research

Deep (musculo) skeletal phenotyping

Enriching structural and functional assessments of the musculoskeletal system allowing gaining novel insights by applying diverse analytical tools including machine learning approaches on Big Data from population- and patient-based cohorts.

Translational Genomics

Bridging genomic discovery research with its effective routine use in healthcare settings.

Projects

The GEnomics of MusculoSkeletal traits TranslatiOnal Network (GEMSTONE) COST Action, is a European research network funded by COST Association. This network fosters collaboration among experts

Samuel Ghatan

PhD Researcher

I graduated with a B.Sc. in Chemistry from the University of Liverpool and went on to obtain a Master’s degree in Neuroscience from King’s College London, specializing in psychiatric genetics. My M.Sc. project focused on using genetics to infer a causal relationship between bone fragility and Alzheimer’s disease.
