Nutrition & Metabolism Animal Nutrition Seminar
274 Animal SciencesBrittney works in the lab of Tom Crenshaw. Brittney’s research has focused on early
development and progression of osteochondrosis lesions in long bones during growth
using the Hypovitaminosis‐D swine model. Our lab’s current research interests are
focused on how vitamin D modulates monocyte differentiation into osteoclasts and
subsequent osteoclastic function during endochondral ossification.
