Women in Osteology
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the last year, women have led ground-breaking research into public health, vaccines, treatments, and innovative technology and been on the front lines of the COVID-19 response as scientists and healthcare workers. To date, countless women have made historical contributions to bone research, with many influential female researchers from this field. In order to embrace gender equality, recognize the career progression of women, and to celebrate the achievements of women in the field of bone research, our journal will launch a Special Issue on “Women in Osteology”. For this edition, contributions in which women are the corresponding authors of the manuscripts are strongly encouraged.
Prof. Dr. Elaine Dennison
Guest Editor
