Summary

Dr. Janna Andronowski of Memorial University of Newfoundland talks about bone histology. We’re bringing it back to basics with how bones grow, how they “know” what shape they should be, and how bones regulate themselves. Also, we discuss what a cellular examination of bone can tell you about a person.
