Jordan
Coming to Jordan represents a unique opportunity to witness the embrace of history and future. As small in area as it is, Jordan has a rich history spanning thousands of years, a history that a tourist can only admire. Places like Petra and the Dead Sea are only examples of the many one-of-a-kind places to visit in Jordan. On top of all that, Jordan, as a peaceful country in a turbulent area, enjoys extreme levels of safety and security. Jordanian people are internationally known for generosity, hospitality and cultural awareness and tolerance.

Regulating resorption: A neglected tool in bone regeneration
Summary
The ability to build bone both systemically and locally to prevent fracture, to stabilise prosthetic devices, and to maintain regenerated bone remains a clinical challenge. Osteoclasts are capable of resorbing bone with high efficiency and are implicated in bone fracture, prosthesis loosening, and in stress shielding related and inflammation induced bone loss. Our understanding of osteoclast action and its inhibition were greatly increased by the discovery of the RANKL, RANK and Osteoprotegerin axis of osteoclast regulation. Bone is a mechanically sensitive tissue with strain detected of osteocytes which regulate bone modelling and remodelling to maintain a steady state for bone strain. This is achieved by the net gain or loss of bone through the actions of osteoblasts and osteoclasts respectively. However, these same actions designed to maintain a functionally strong but light skeleton are found to oppose bone regeneration and to erode prosthesis support. This talk will review the regulation of bone remodelling and discuss strategies to oppose the unwanted outcomes of bone resorption on prosthesis function and the maintenance of regenerated bone.
