Research Interest
Dr. Rubin’s research is targeted towards understanding the cellular mechanisms responsible for the growth, healing and homeostasis of bone, and how mechanical stimuli mediate these responses through the control of mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cell differentiation and proliferation, to establish non-drug treatment strategies for osteoporosis, obesity and diabetes. Dr. Rubin holds about 30 patents in the area of wound repair, stem cell regulation and treatment of metabolic disease, and is a founder of Exogen, Juvent, Marodyne Medical, and Lahara Bio, which use physical signals to regulate biologic processes.
