It’s now nine years since the “Workshop on Bone and the Hematopoietic and Immune Systems,” sponsored in August 1997 by the NIAMS and several other components of the NIH (Sharrock 1998). Even in 1997, although no one had yet coined the term “osteoimmunology,” it was not original to suggest that the skeleton and the immune system might share regulatory pathways or interact with one another directly.
