Agns Vignery, osteoporosis researcher, named Yale-Pfizer Visiting Faculty

Vignery's lab recently developed a new technology to induce bone formation locally for the prevention of fractures and the repair of non-union fractures. The technology is being refined in rodents, anticipating its rapid translation to humans.

"One vision for the program is to enhance the scientific understanding between Pfizer and Yale, and, more broadly, between industry and academia. We have already seen how beneficial these interactions can be," said Karen Houseknecht, president of the Women's Leadership Network at Pfizer. "We look forward to this program expanding the vista of career choices for academic scientists."
