“Our research group just hit a major milestone.
Congratulations to Woosuk Steve Hur for publishing his first senior/corresponding author publication!!!
Now available online in Blood Journals Portfolio, we document the interplay of the fibrinogen αC-region, hypofibrinogenemia, and glycoprotein VI in arterial thrombosis.
Great work by lead author Robert Lee with major contributions from an amazing team of collaborators, including Marguerite Neerman-Arbez, Bernhard Nieswandt, Christian Kastrup, and Wolfgang Bergmeier.”
