Research projects

  • Funding from British Heart Foundation, MRC, BBSRC, Heart Research UK, and pharmaceutical companies
  • Programme grants from British Heart Foundation and MRC
  • Understanding of the molecular mechanisms that regulate the function of platelets in haemostasis and thrombosis
  • Development of new strategies for the prevent of thrombosis
  • Cell signalling, specialist assays of haematological function, in vivo analysis of thrombosis and its prevention
  • Development of a mathematical model of platelet signalling and function - the Virtual Platelet - for in silico experimentation, drug discovery and diagnosis.
  • Founding director of the ICMR, which brings together the distinctive range of research expertise across the University to enable us impact on reducing the burden of cardiovascular diseases and the metabolic conditions from which they develop, through disease prevention and treatment.
