TABLE 2.

Opportunity areas for basic science in thrombosis and hemostasis

Opportunity areas Mechanisms causing bleeding Innate immunity and thrombosis Venous thrombosis
Assessing and visualizing hemostasis
Blood rheology‐driven vascular effects
Cancer‐associated thrombosis
Cellular contributions to thrombosis and hemostasis
Major hemorrhage
Obesity‐related thrombotic complications
Pathogen‐induced effects (e.g., COVID−19, sepsis, etc.)
Platelet production and function
Rare bleeding diseases
Rare thrombotic diseases
Safe anticoagulants
Structure‐function of hemostatic proteins
Trauma‐induced coagulopathy
Universal prohemostatics

Fourteen opportunity areas were identified and subsequently organized into three overarching categories that umbrella many of the various topics.
