Funded Activity Summary

Inappropriate blood clot formation is the cause of most heart attacks and strokes, and platelets are the blood cells which form these clots. Current therapies that interfere with platelet function are used to prevent heart attack and stroke but are frequently ineffective. We will study the signals which control platelet incorporation into clots in order to discover improved therapeutic strategies for heart attack and stroke prevention.
