    Research Interest: Role of Calcium Regulating Hormones in Health and Disease. Over the Past Twenty Years His Laboratory Has Explored the Role of Vitamin D and Parathyroid Hormone Related Peptide (Pthrp) in Cancer and Musculoskeletal Disorders. His Team Was the First to Demonstrate The Efficacy of Vitamin D on Bone Aging and Prevention of Fat Accumulation in the Bone Marrow. Recently, He Co-Authored the First Evidence Linking Vitamin D Insufficiency, Muscle Fat Accumulation and Muscle Strength. His Laboratory Established the Role of the Hormone Pthrp as a Biomarker of Survival in Cancer and More Recently as a Critical Mediator of Tumor Initiation and Progression in Breast Cancer. His Clinical Research Unit Located at the Mcgill University Health Center also Participates in Major Multicenter Trials on Osteoporosis and Bone–Related Cancer Trials
