ASBMR Harold M. Frost Young Investigator Awards
ASBMR is pleased to continue offering the ASBMR Harold M. Frost Young Investigator Awards, supported in collaboration with the ORS International Musculoskeletal Biology Workshop.
These awards of $1,500 each will allow ten young investigators to participate in the next workshop, occurring in 2025 at Zermatt Utah Resort and Spa in Midway, Utah.
Harold
Frost’s ideas transformed the face of skeletal biology and orthopedic science and he is regarded by many as being the most influential theoretician in skeletal biology of the 20th century. Harold Frost developed the process of quantitative bone histomorphometry, discovered the intermediary organization of bone and shed theoretical insights into the adaptation of bone to mechanical forces and hormones. In addition to Harold Frost's many scientific accomplishments, he was an active participant in the ORS International Musculoskeletal Biology Workshop at Sun Valley, an annual meeting that emphasizes interaction between young investigators and senior investigators. The young investigator awards were named in honor of ASBMR member and long-time meeting participant Harold M. Frost, a mentor to many whose contributions to skeletal biology and metabolic bone disease have had a profound impact on the field.
The 2025 ASBMR Harold M. Frost Young Investigator Awards application will open in February 2025.
