Congratulations to our @simonebrysland and @JamesIHearn for this incredible image 🎉
🎉 Exciting news! Winners of the @plateletjournal Cover Art Competition announced!
This stunning image by Simone A. Brysland & James I. Hearn from The Australian National University, reveals how platelet function changes in hyperviscous blood, common in lymphoma patients.
ALT Here, healthy human platelets spread on collagen in the presence of IgM derived from Waldenström Macroglobulinaemia patient plasma. Actin in red, α-tubulin in green and IgM in blue.

1/ Very pleased to present our work in @CD_AACR - what we hope will be a valuable tool for studying steady state and malignant hematopoiesis, screening therapies, and as a platform to study patient cell interactions and effects.

Bone Marrow Organoids are HERE! 🎉🦴
Incredibly excited to announce that our paper is now published in Cancer Discovery @CD_AACR.
Congratulations @AbAttacks, @beth_psaila and team for this massive effort. Can't wait to see where this incredible innovation will take the field...

Have you ever wondered about the (evolutionary) reason for the MK and its role?🩸
Thank you @Vesna_Tod for letting us get creative with this. I absolutely loved writing this- @boilard_eric and I had so much fun!!
Give it a read and let us know- why do you think MKs evolved? 👇🏼 – at Arlington, MA

BRI Investigator Brian Branchford published his first last-author paper in @plateletjournal: Apolipoprotein A-I, elevated in trauma patients, inhibits platelet activation and decreases clot strength. First of many! Congrats Brian! tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Incredibly important and under-appreciated fact about platelet transfusions in neonates!!
Check out this amazing review written by @pdavenport13 and Dr. Sola-Visner, two of my favorite #WomeninSTEM
DID YOU KNOW: there are profound differences between adult & neonatal #platelets? These need to be considered when transfusing neonates to reduce bleeding. Read this #ISTH2021 State of the Art Review by Davenport & Sola-Visner: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @isth

Pleased to present our pre-print: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… where we report the development and application of a BM organoid for the study of hematological disorders. I hope this proves a valuable tool for future studies.
