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....
