One of our confocal images made the cover (!), and @caterinacasari.bsky.social wrote a thoughtful commentary on the work. For more, tune into the blood podcast with @bieringslab.bsky.social: share.transistor.fm/s/ba4aedec#t...

Many thanks to all patients and co-authors!

We used this approach to study patients with genetic variants in the guanine nucleotide exchange factor MADD. Their endothelial cells showed impaired secretion, which compromises vascular response to injury and may increase bleeding risk. Now published in Blood: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S....

I’m happy to share some plugins I’ve been developping this summer: "Channels and Contrast" and LUTs Manager!
I can’t find new bugs and ideas by now so I need your help to please test them in your machines and report bugs, feedbacks and ideas! forum.image.sc/t/looking-fo...

Wetenschappers van het Erasmus MC hebben ontdekt dat de bloedstollingsziekte van Von Willebrand niet altijd veroorzaakt wordt door een fout in het gelijknamige gen. Ook een probleem bij de uitscheiding van het stollingseiwit kan de ziekte teweegbrengen. amazingerasmusmc.nl/interne-gene...

If you've been meaning to check out the Night Science Podcast, this is the perfect episode to get started with. Everyone is telling me it's our best one yet!
The germans made a soda version of mate which has very little to do with the original🧉
Hahaha who needs sleep right?
In the Hematology department of the EMC, we are big fans of Mate, a high-caffeine iced tea. But which brand tastes best? The only way to know was to try them all. Mio Mio ginger flavor wins! 🫚🧪
