    "Regulation of gastric and osteoclast acidification by Snx10"
    The specific aims to be addressed in this project are: 1) Determine the cellular mechanisms by which Snx10 regulates osteoclast function. 2) Determine the role of osteoclastic expression of Snx10 on bone homeostasis in vivo. 3) Determine the role of gastric expression of Snx10 on bone homeostasis in vivo.

    "Effects of Ekso-assisted gait training on Bone Health and Quality of Life: A Randomized Clinical Trial"
    The goals of this project are to 1) determine whether exoskeleton-assisted gait training increases bone strength in the paralyzed lower extremity and 2) determine whether exoskeleton-assisted gait training improves quality of life after SCI. Secondarily, to determine whether gait training improves the following related outcomes and mediators of quality of life: mood, pain, and cortical activity of related emotional networks in the brain.
