    • Xuyu L
    Immune reactions triggered by therapies such as heparin, adenovirus-based vaccines and viral infections may cause severe thrombosis. This project explores novel peptides we have designed that interfere with immune complex formation to prevent thrombosis. We will use state-of-the art technologies including human vessel-on-a-chip models, transgenic mice and high end microscopy
  • RESEARCH-BASED DEGREE SUPERVISION
    Defining the role of T-lymphocytes on endothelial activation in Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia (HIT) and evaluating novel therapeutics to limit thrombosis.
