Research Interests

I’ve been interested in discovering the function of platelet. While investigating hemostasis for three years, I began to realize the importance of platelet function in hemostasis. My ultimate goal is to better understand the pathophysiology of platelet-related disease and help to develop new therapies for preventing platelet-related disease for patients.
