Researchers from the Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University of Birmingham, UK, have produced the first binding molecules (ligands) of defined composition to make platelets clump together in a predictable way. Research in this area has been hampered due to limitations of the currently used ligands.

The first such research dates back to 1891, when William Coley attempted to inject heat-inactivated bacteria to treat osteosarcoma. This is an exciting field of cancer research which involves harnessing the body’s own immune system to target cancerous cells. This continues to be the standard of care.
