    Professor Hardingham’s research interests are in the biology and pathology of cartilage and musculoskeletal tissues and the degenerative processes in osteoarthritis and other joint diseases. He has long standing research interests in the physical properties and biological functions of extracellular matrices. Current research is focussed on developing systems biology approaches to stratify OA as a complex disease based on transcriptomic analysis of patients cartilage and in parallel work to develop strategies for the differentiation of embryonic stem cells (and iPS cell) into chondrocytes for clinical applications in tissue engineering of cartilage.
