Giving to FOP Research

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva is a rare genetic disorder which causes bone to form in muscles, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissues, progressively restricting movement. The body produces not only too much bone, but also an extra skeleton that immobilizes the joints of the body. Professor James Triffitt at Oxford’s Institute of Musculoskeletal Sciences is one of the few scientists in the world conducting research into FOP. He leads a team of scientists developing new methods for improving skeletal healing by stem cell and genetic therapy. This work also has great relevance for the discovery of therapies for more common diseases such as osteoporosis.
