GOOD BONES

“I have always been interested in how the body works and moves,” Moore says. “My academic career led me to recognize that there is a huge gap in osteoarthritis research. My hope is that my work will help bridge those lapses.

”For his research and accomplishments as a student and graduate research assistant in the Marco Brotto Laboratory, Moore was named one of 29 recipients of the 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research Young Investigator Awards.

“Participating in the masterclass was an incredibly valuable opportunity to learn and share my work with peers and other professionals in the field,” Moore says.

Marco Brotto, George W. & Hazel M. Jay Endowed Professorship and director of the Bone Muscle Research Center (BMRC), says Moore has “a true passion for science.”

“It’s another example of how great our environment is for interdisciplinary training at the Science & Engineering Innovation & Research building and the BMRC,” says Dr. Brotto, who directed the PhD in nursing program until June 2022. “This recognition is a great honor for Logan, the Brotto Lab, the BMRC, and the Department of Kinesiology.”

In recognition of the need to promote the field of kinesiology, the Department of Kinesiology joined the American Kinesiology Association.

The University of Texas System and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board approved the University’s request for a name change, and the School of Nursing became the College of Nursing.
