Inflammation is the body’s physiological response to minimise deleterious impact of injury or infection. However, uncontrolled inflammatory processes can be detrimental and contribute to inflammatory diseases. Inflammatory pathways also cross-talk with coagulation pathways and can increase the risk of thrombosis. As such, inflammation and thrombosis remain to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality, despite much improvement in the understanding of these diseases and drug development over the last 3 decades. My PhD project aims to develop safe and effective molecular agents that target different components of inflammatory and coagulation pathways for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
