Healthy Joints - Let’s Walk this Journey Together

Join a study today and help us in shaping the future of osteoarthritis treatment and care in Australia.

Osteoarthritis, once considered an inevitable part of aging, is now recognised as a treatable condition.

While advances in treatment have improved quality of life, continued research is necessary to ultimately find a cure.

Osteoarthritis is the most common chronic joint disease in Australia and affects 1 in 8 people.

The disease develops at any age and is a leading cause of pain, disability and early retirement.

Currently there is no cure for osteoarthritis and the number with the disease is expected to soar.
