Clinical Practice Committee

Purpose:

The Clinical Practice Committee has the mission to engage with other Scientific Societies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and Professional Colleges (eg RACP) sharing similar interests to promote high quality research, strong scholarship and professional development in areas directly, or to some extent, associated with bone and mineral metabolism and musculoskeletal diseases.

Strategic Objectives:

• to represent and engage with clinicians amongst the society’s broader membership, raising awareness of current issues for clinical practice in bone and mineral metabolism and musculoskeletal research. 

• to promote clinician engagement in the Society by supporting educational activities, continuing professional development (CPD), advocating current best-practice guidelines and acknowledging controversies in the field, as they arise.

• to regularly engage with clinical professional societies and consumer groups in matters impacting musculoskeletal research (see scope of activities)

• to critically appraise new guidelines, publications and regulatory applications, as presented to the society, on matters relating to clinical practice in bone and mineral metabolism and musculoskeletal medicine.
