Personal Statement
Research Interests
Dr. Kostousov's primary research interests are hemostasis interaction and regulation; prediction of bleeding or thrombosis with laboratory markers in different clinical situations and diseases; monitoring of drugs that interfere with hemostasis (antiplatelets, anticoagulants, antifibrinolytics) with established or novel laboratory tests.
From Dr. Kostousov
My goal is to translate our scientific findings into clinical practice for better patients' management. I am eager to be at the edge of clinical science.
