Very pleased to able to share our latest research on platelet activation in #VITT authored by Richard Buka 💙 and Sam Montague from Bham Platelet Group and UoB Cardiovascular published in Blood Journal yesterday. We show that PF4 itself activates platelets via the TPO receptor c-MPL.

Many congratulations Valentine! fantastic thesis and PhD defence 👏👏

Amazing Valencia 😍European Congress on Thrombosis and Haemostasis 2023…I just need to leave the comments from reviewer 2 on the side for now 😅

Platelets never fail to impress: They can prevent bleeding without aggregation using specialized effector functions - Hemostasis without clot formation! Our review in Blood Journal on platelets in inflammatory hemostasis is out: ashpublications.org/blood/article/…

We have an excellent line up of speakers including Anna Randi Lab Anjali Kusumbe Mass Lab Bilal Sheikh Ralf H. Adams Julie Rayes Joanna Kalucka Joerg Heeren Peder S Olofsson Ozanne lab Sabine Steiner Niels Boeckel Tobias Petzold Carsten Deppermann and several others not on X
