CBE PhD Dissertation Defense | “The role of clot structure and mechanics on hemodynamics and pharmacology”
Abstract: “Hemostatic clots have a core/shell hierarchy comprised of a P-selectin positive core surrounded by a P-selectin negative shell. A new human blood microfluidic assay utilizing a 2-stage assay was […]

Please join us for this distinguished lecture given by Dr. Susan Margulies, Assistant Director of NSF, Engineering Directorate. This event will be held in a hybrid format in the Wu […]
CBE PhD Dissertation Defense | “The effects of platelet signaling inhibitors on clot development under flow”
Abstract: “Syk and Src family kinases (SFK) inhibitors interfere with signaling from GPVI, α2β1, αIIbβ3, and GPIb-IX-V to reduce thrombotic risk or induce bleeding episodes. Collagen-mediated clustering of platelet GPVI […]
CBE PhD Dissertation Defense | “Understanding the relationship between clot contraction and platelet biology under hemodynamic conditions”
Abstract: “As thrombosis proceeds, platelets in a clot can expose phosphatidylserine (PS), providing a negatively charged surface for thrombin generation. These PS+ platelets have been shown to sort to the […]
