Honoring the Legacy of Charles T. Esmon in Hemostasis and Thrombosis – ISTH

International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) shared a post on LinkedIn:

The ISTH staff, leadership and members extend their sincere condolences to the family of Charles ‘Chuck’ T. Esmon, Ph.D., a longtime ISTH member and influential leader within the field of thrombosis and hemostasis, who passed away on May 1, 2026.

Chuck and his wife Naomi joined the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation in 1982, where they made many pioneering discoveries related to thrombosis and hemostasis.

Chuck is credited with identifying two proteins on the endothelial blood vessel lining: thrombomodulin and the endothelial cell protein C receptor.

His extensive research work often focused on the connection between blood clotting and inflammation.

To recognize his contributions, the ISTH honored Chuck with the ISTH Robert P. Grant Medal, the highest honor of the Society in 2013.

He had previously received the ISTH Distinguished Career Award in 1999 and the ISTH Investigator Recognition Award in 1983.”
