Journal Article
Algarni, A., Greenman, J., & Madden, L. A. (2019). Procoagulant tumor microvesicles attach to endothelial cells on biochips under microfluidic flow. Biomicrofluidics, 13(6), Article 064124. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5123462

Tumor patients are at a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), and the mechanism by which this occurs may involve tumor-derived microvesicles (MVs). Previously, it has been shown that tumor MVs become attached to endothelial cells in static condi...

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 64(12), Article 12NT02. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6560/ab215b

Significant improvements in radiotherapy are likely to come from biological rather than technical optimization, for example increasing tumour radiosensitivity via combination with targeted therapies. Such paradigms must first be evaluated in preclini... Read More about Development of an anatomically correct mouse phantom for dosimetry measurement in small animal radiotherapy research.

The Ratio of Factor VIIa:Tissue Factor Content within Microvesicles Determines the Differential Influence on Endothelial Cells (2019)
