Research or Clinical Activities
Dr. Goltzman`s research has been unique in defining basic mechanisms relevant to the regulation of mineral and skeletal metabolism, while also providing new clinical concepts of metabolic bone disease, including osteoporosis, renal osteodystrophy, and cancer and bone. He has made many important contributions to our knowledge of parathyroid hormone (PTH), PTH related peptide and vitamin D, which have had major impact on our understanding of the pathophysiology.and treatment of a variety of metabolic bone diseases. He has also been principal investigator of the Canadian Multicentre Osteoporosis Study (CaMos) which examines the demographics, development, risk factors and outcomes of osteoporosis. His publications (more than 400 peer-reviewed original publications) have been cited over 29,000 times (over 16,000 since 2016) with an h-index of 102 (Google Scholar). He also pursues clinical activity in metabolic bone disease and general endocrinology and teaches at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
