Cooper, Cyrus - University of Southampton

个人简介

Professor Cooper graduated from the University of Cambridge and St Bartholomew’s Hospital, London in 1980, and completed his residency in 1985 at the Southampton University Hospitals. In 1990, he won an MRC Travelling Fellowship to the Mayo Clinic, USA, where he continued his research in osteoporosis. He returned to the UK in 1992 to take up a position as Senior Lecturer in Rheumatology and MRC Senior Clinical Scientist. He was promoted to the foundation Chair in Rheumatology at the University of Southampton in 1997 while continuing as an MRC Senior Clinical Scientist at the MRC Environmental Epidemiology Unit; in 2003 he was appointed Director of the MRC Epidemiology Resource Centre, University of Southampton. In 2010, this was reconfigured as the MRC Lifecourse Epidemiology Unit; quinquennial funding has been extended from 2015 to 2020.

研究领域

Professor Cooper established and continues to lead a directly funded MRC research programme into the Epidemiology of Musculoskeletal Disease. The programme focuses on the following areas: (a) the epidemiology, pathophysiology and prevention of osteoporosis; (b) the epidemiology and natural history of osteoarthritis; (c) the occupational and environmental determinants of soft tissue rheumatic disorders (low back pain and neck/upper limb pain). The osteoporosis research programme has three broad objectives: (1) to delineate the extent to which the risk of osteoporosis in late adulthood might be programmed by environmental influences during intrauterine and early postnatal life, and to characterize the mechanisms whereby such programming might occur; (2) to characterize the descriptive epidemiology of vertebral and limb fractures; (3) to evaluate the roles of calcium and Vitamin D supplementation in the elderly as immediate preventative strategies against hip fracture.
