Course description
This course is part of the mandatory coursework of the programme Cardiovascular Health and Disease. This coursework is designed to prepare students for a future career as a cardiovascular researcher by equipping them with the essential knowledge, skills, and professional mindset required in the field.
In the course Thrombosis and Haemostasis, students will gain a deep understanding of the molecular, cellular, and physiological mechanisms that underlie thrombosis and haemostasis. Students will explore key mechanisms, model systems, and methodologies within this research field, with a focus on work conducted in Utrecht. Through critical engagement with the scientific literature, students will learn to formulate research questions and design robust research strategies. Emphasis is placed on integrating principles of scientific integrity, reproducibility, translatability, and transparency into research practice. Collaborative learning is fostered through constructive feedback exercises, promoting both content expertise and interpersonal growth.
Finally, the course introduces students to the research community within the Cardiovascular Health and Disease programme in Utrecht.
