Phinney Lab
Led by Donald Phinney · Molecular Medicine
What we study
The lab combines basic research and drug discovery for bone diseases and cancer. It studies how obesity, disuse and aging affect skeletal stem cells in mice and has built a scale to match stem-cell therapies to diseases. The lab is at UF Scripps in Jupiter, Florida, not on the Gainesville campus.
