Men & Bone Health with Dr. Rodrigo J. Valderrábano

Author: Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation July 20, 2022 Duration: 0:00
On this episode of Bone Talk, BHOF CEO Claire Gill talks to Dr. Rodrigo Valderrábano. His research focus is on metabolic bone disease and during his time as a research fellow at Stanford University, he was awarded the Endocrine Society’s Outstanding Abstract award and the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research’s Young Investigator award for his work studying the links between bone health and hematopoiesis in older men. He continues his research efforts with the ultimate goal of further delineating treatable risk factors for osteoporosis and devising non-pharmacologic treatment strategies for osteoporosis such as rehabilitation and exercise.

Tuning into Bone Talk feels like pulling up a chair to a thoughtful, necessary conversation that often goes unheard. Produced by the Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation, this podcast moves beyond simple medical advice, weaving together the real human stories and expert insights that define the landscape of bone health. Each episode brings a different voice to the forefront-you might hear a researcher explaining a breakthrough in treatment, a caregiver sharing their daily challenges, or a policy advocate discussing systemic change. It’s this mosaic of perspectives from patients, doctors, innovators, and advocates that gives the discussion its depth and urgency. While osteoporosis is a central focus, the dialogue naturally expands to encompass holistic well-being, nutrition, fitness, and the science of healthy aging. The goal isn’t just to inform but to equip you with practical strategies and a sense of community, emphasizing how protecting bone strength is fundamentally about preserving your independence and capacity for an active life. This isn't a clinical lecture; it's a resource built on genuine conversation, making complex topics accessible and relevant for anyone invested in their long-term health.
