Bone Mineral Density

A presentation by Noah Reszel and William Schulte

What is BMD
• Basic Definition of BMD
(insert picture here)
• Describe what Bone Mineral Density is
• What it does for the human body
• Why we find this interesting?
History of BMD
• When did BMD first start getting measured?
• Who/what made it possible to measure it?
• How is it measured?
• Why did we start measuring it?
• When were foundations that research/fund-raise to help support
those with BMD problems?
• (This Info will be continued on other slides, if needed)
History of BMD (continued)
Current significance of BMD
• Describe what has caused people to start paying attention to this.
• What disease have come up?
• What social factors play into this?
• What science routes have been taken to help deduce what is causing
problems involving this?
• (If anything else that comes up, post here)
• (This Info will be continued on other slides, if needed)
Current significance of BMD (continued)
The Chemical Principles of BMD
• What is Bone made of?
• What reactions happen to cause/make BMD?
• What components are needed to make reactions happen?
• Do components not work without each other
