Featuring Dr Rowan Hardy

Rowan Hardy is a Versus Arthritis Fellow and Lecturer at the University of Birmingham with extensive experience in steroid metabolism and in vivo models of chronic inflammation. Patients with chronic inflammatory diseases develop systemic complications such as muscle wasting and bone loss, which contribute to disability and reduced life expectancy. His research group is examine the roles of myeloid and mesenchymal steroid metabolism and signalling in mediating inflammatory disease pathophysiology and systemic complications in muscle and bone, identifying novel strategies to improve the safety profile of therapeutic glucocorticoids. The inter-disciplinary collaboration linking the Institute of Metabolism & Systems Research and Inflammation & Ageing ensure a fully translational approach to this research, utilising state of the art cell culture, molecular biology and animal husbandry facilities.
