Your Practice: Improved By OREF-funded Research

Marshall R. Urist, M.D.

How Dr. Urist's Research Improved Your Practice: Dr. Urist's initial research ultimately led to the development of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), which stimulates bone growth and promotes bone repair.

The results: Your patients heal faster with better fusions and joint replacements.
