Dr. Kelsey Collins is an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Orthopaedic Surgery and Anatomy at University of California San Francisco, USA. Her lab is focused on defining novel mechanisms of fat interorgan crosstalk using osteoarthritis, lipedema, obesity, aging and knee pain as model systems in mice, cell models, and human tissues. Most recently they have demonstrated a causative mechanistic role for fat secreted factors in the onset and progression of knee pain. Dr. Collins and her team leveraging state-of-the-art interdisciplinary approaches in bioengineering, endocrinology, stem cell biology, and physiology to understand healthy aging and reimagine treatment options for musculoskeletal pain.
