Our research aims to contribute towards preventing musculoskeletal conditions from starting, getting worse or causing long-term disability in later life. These conditions include low back pain, chronic widespread pain, regional pain and osteoarthritis. The focus of the multi-morbidity research is on exploring conditions which occur alongside musculoskeletal conditions, for example, pain, anxiety and depression, osteoarthritis and cardiovascular disease.
