# 11th Symposium on Hemostasis at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill > **NIH NIH R13** · UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL · 2024 · $30,000 ## Abstract Summary Funding is requested for the registration fees and travel costs of invited speakers and discussion leaders as well as registration fee support for graduate students, postdocs, and early/mid- career scientists with an emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities to attend the 2024 11th Symposium on Hemostasis at the University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill. The theme of the 2024 Symposium will be coagulation and platelet biology at the intersection of health and disease. The program is designed to bring together experts to present their most recent cutting-edge findings centered on defining novel mechanisms and innovative therapeutic advances in hemostasis and thrombosis. Indeed, recent data suggest that coagulation proteins and platelets are tied to numerous pathological processes through mechanisms both dependent and independent of their traditional roles in hemostasis and thrombosis. Our invited speakers will present their latest and emerging work across a spectrum of basic science and clinical topics where coagulation proteins and platelets play a functional role, including cardiovascular disease, aging, cancer, infection and immunity, as well as tissue remodeling and regeneration. Priority will be placed on highlighting both the role these proteins play as disease modifiers, as well as the utility of employing or targeting these factors for diagnosis and therapy. Indeed, a major goal for the 2024 Symposium on Hemostasis is highlighting the translation of basic research findings into the clinical practice. In addition to invited speakers and discussion leaders, attendees will be selected by invitation and from applications submitted online. They will be chosen to represent a diverse spectrum of research, with a strong emphasis on equity of opportunity and inclusion of individuals across all demographic metrics. Additional efforts will be committed to recruit women and trainees of underrepresented groups as speakers in the ‘Hot Topics’ session and as poster presenters. An intended strength of this meeting will be the interaction and networking of young scientists in the field with the discussion leaders and the speakers. Collectively, the specific aims for the 2024 11th Symposium on Hemostasis are to: (i) provide an environment that facilitates lively and open discussions between early career, mid-career, and established scientists that fuels the process of scientific discovery in the hemostasis and thrombosis community; (ii) provide a platform of support for the careers of junior scientists, including predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees, to ensure growth of the field; (iii) promote collaborative and interdisciplinary scientific research that opens channels of long-term interaction and networking that enhances diversity in the field; and (iv) raise the professional development of under-represented groups in the hemostasis and thrombosis community. Through these specific aims the 11th Symposium on Hemostasis will reveal t... ## Key facts - **NIH application ID:** 10828144 - **Project number:** 1R13HL172571-01 - **Recipient organization:** UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL - **Principal Investigator:** Matthew J.
