In a collaborative research effort, Anirban Sen Gupta, the Wallace R. Persons Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, and Pedram Mohseni, chair of the Department of Electrical, Computer and Systems Engineering, developed PlateChek.
Funded by a collaborative grant from the U.S. Department of Defense, this portable diagnostic device is the first of its kind and is designed to assess blood clotting disorders linked to platelet count and function.
Due to the novelty and impact of Sen Gupta and Mohseni’s project, their research was published in the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis and was selected for the cover of the journal’s April 2026 issue in recognition of its innovation and potential impact on the field of blood coagulation research.
The Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis is the official journal of International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, the biggest global organization of researchers and clinicians researching in the field of blood blood coagulation.
