Poole Hardy Selected for 2020 JTH Editor's Award

March 3, 2020

IIT training grant postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Lauren Poole Hardy, was selected as one of six early career investigators to receive the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) 2020 Editors' Awards. The jury, comprised of the Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors of JTH, chose six recently published articles that particularly stood out in their contributions to the field of thrombosis and hemostasis. Poole Hardy was selected for her publication, "Chronic liver injury drives non-traditional intrahepatic fibrin(ogen) crosslinking via tissue transglutaminase." Poole Hardy will receive a travel grant to attend the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) 2020 Congress.

Poole Hardy is a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Dr. James Luyendyk. Her research interests are focused on the role of the blood clotting cascade in acute and chronic liver injury. Specifically, her goals are to identify how the blood clotting factor fibrin(ogen) drives repair of the injured liver.
