Mechanisms in Thrombosis and Hemostasis

Principal Investigators: Prof. Yona Nadir Lab

Coagulation – a physiological system interfacing all other body systems
The coagulation system is a rapidly advancing area of clinical and basic research. Extensive research in the challenging field of thrombosis and bleeding is ongoing and has already resulted in new pharmacological modalities such as siRNA technology based drugs. There is a vicious cycle between the coagulation system and infection, inflammation, cancer and angiogenesis. The well-established strong association between coagulation and cancer provides a solid incentive for developing drugs capable to interfere with the coagulation system to attenuate tumor growth.
