Biography

Professor Michael Rogers graduated from the University of Sheffield, UK, in 1989 with first-class honours in Biochemistry, followed by a PhD in bone pharmacology in 1994. He completed postdoctoral studies at the University of Sheffield and then moved to the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. In 1997, he was appointed Professor of Musculoskeletal Pharmacology. Between 2005 and 2010, he led the Musculoskeletal Research Program, which was recognized as a Centre of Excellence by the European League Against Rheumatism. In 2012, he relocated to the Garvan Institute in Sydney to establish and lead the Bone Therapeutics Group within the Healthy Ageing Theme. His groundbreaking research has elucidated the mechanisms of action of bisphosphonates, a class of anti-resorptive drugs used worldwide as the gold standard treatment for osteoporosis, bone metastases, and childhood bone disorders. Among his over 90 publications and 38 reviews/book chapters, his work on bisphosphonates has transformed understanding of their pharmacology. He continues to investigate the anti-cancer and immune-modulatory effects of bisphosphonates as well as their roles in autoinflammatory disorders. Professor Rogers has strong links with the pharmaceutical industry and serves on several editorial boards and grant committees, contributing to over 15,000 citations to his work.
