We hope to raise and spread awareness about osteoporosis and its connection to our overall health. We will be presenting the latest research news on osteoporosis and bone health and also share highlights of our own research and experiences caring for osteoporosis patients. We update the blog regularly so be sure to check back frequently or sign up for email updates informing you of new posts. We also have a few pages with information that might be useful to you.
On What is Osteoporosis, you can find general information on what osteoporosis is and how to prevent, treat, and manage it. In the event that you cannot find the information you are looking for, please send us an email at osteoporosis@uhn.ca and we will try to locate the information for you.
Patient Materials has PDF versions of our print publications for patients, including the latest copy of our newsletter ‘Postmenopausal Health Overview’ and more information on how you can obtain your copy of our booklet ‘The Osteoporosis Exercise Guide.’ External resources such as Osteoporosis Canada are always a go-to organization for us when we need to offer information to our patients and research participants so please be sure to look through their website.
Our Research highlights our research program and we will add more information on our ongoing research studies. If you are interested in participating in a research study, please look through the recruitment section to see if we are currently recruiting for any studies. If you feel you are eligible to participate, please contact the study coordinator for more details.
For Health Professionals includes pages that provide education and teaching programs for healthcare professionals. Some of the links will require a password. To obtain the password, please email us using the address you registered with for the event.
