Congratulations to Arnold, whose research into blood flow has led to proposed novel therapies that efficiently prevent disease-forming clots, a breakthrough that will have life-saving implications for diabetics.

Dr Arnold Ju’s research has advanced our understanding of how ‘force-sensing’ proteins in the cardiovascular system trigger blood clotting. Inspired by his mechanobiology discoveries, he has proposed novel therapies that efficiently prevent disease-forming clots, a breakthrough that will have life-saving implications for diabetics who are resistant to conventional anti-clotting drugs, such as aspirin and plavix.
