Fell-Muir lecture: cartilage 2010 - the known unknowns.

Abstract:

:Over the past 40 years there have been giant steps forward in our understanding of cellular and molecular biology that have given us the framework by which to understand tissue organization and tissue function on a range of scales. However, although the progress has been great, the more we have discovered, the more we are aware of what we don't yet know. In this article, I would like to flag up some issues of cartilage biology, function and pathology where we still have significant ignorance. As scientists we all provide contributions to add to the greater understanding of science and progress is on a broad front, but gaps are left where particular difficulty is encountered and in life sciences it is no different. Progress is fast where new knowledge and techniques pave the way, but where study is complex and relevant techniques poorly developed the gaps are left behind. In cartilage research and matrix biology, the gaps can particularly be seen at interfaces between disciplines and where technology development has lagged behind and in the particular challenges of understanding how molecular properties can explain tissue macro properties.
