    Anandi Krishnan is a translational scientist and principal investigator in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University. Dr. Krishnan’s current research focuses on transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms of blood cell function and dysfunction in human disease. In particular, she is interested in expanding our understanding of the multifaceted function of blood platelets in cancer, inflammation, or immunity, beyond their classical role in hemostasis and thrombosis. Her work integrates omics-based discovery (from large clinical cohorts) with experimental and computational systems biology approaches toward a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms, risk stratification, and novel therapeutic strategies. Recent findings have outlined a number of heretofore unrecognized platelet mechanisms that are central to platelet response in disease.
