Jonathan W. Lowery, PhD

My research interests center on the cell communication events that underlie normal and abnormal physiology. Current projects in the lab are examining the molecular underpinnings of skeletal development; age-related loss in bone and skeletal muscle mass; and the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. My research group is also active in developing biotechnology tools and improving bone grafting technologies. We carry out this work in concert with a large international group of collaborators. My trainees participate in the Bone & Muscle Research Group at Marian University, of which I serve as the Director.

In addition to performing original research, I am active in the synthesis and transformation of research through writing scholarly reviews, editorials, and service to professional societies.
