“Dr. Campbell’s work is focused on mechanisms underpinning inflammation-induced thrombosis. Specific projects include understanding how aging alters platelet and megakaryocyte gene expression to promote thrombosis and elucidating new triggers of sepsis-associated thrombosis. He is also the recipient of the 2018 ATVB Kenneth M. Brinkhous Award.”
Our research program focuses on platelet and megakaryocyte gene expression and function during thrombo-inflammatory syndromes. To answer clinically-relevant questions, we utilize primary human cells and samples from patients as well as relevant experimental model systems. Current projects in the lab span from studies in patients with infectious diseases (e.g. sepsis, dengue, influenza) to aging and cardiometabolic disorders.
