We get to watch and maybe ask questions of champions of our conditions discussing microclots, antiphospholipid syndrome, and hypercoagulabilty and symptoms that come from those, plus treatment.
Bring your friends!

I love that the paper mentions PPAR agonists!
Maybe we'll hear more at Roundtable with @dbkell.bsky.social & @resiapretorius.bsky.social (+ Dr. Vaughn + Dr. Schofield) + some very awesome panelists.
