The Scientific Committee of the Bayer Science and Education Foundation has awarded the 30 000 Euro Bayer Thrombosis Research Award to IPEK scientist Dr. Changjun Yin.
Dr. Yin was chosen in recognition of his research on Atherosclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease as inflammatory conditions with high risks to develop thrombosis-related diseases. Yin and the research group showed a compelling case to bridge basic science using animal models and human translational studies in atherosclerosis, choroid plexus inflammation, and Alzheimer’s, and the data strongly suggests an avenue to treat patients afflicted with atherosclerosis.
