Lecturer in Cardiovascular Science
St George's University of London
London, England, United Kingdom
Dr Isabelle Salles-Crawley is a Lecturer in Cardiovascular Science in the Molecular and Clinical Sciences Research Institute. Her main research focus is to understand the molecular mechanisms of blood clotting and cardiovascular diseases.
Her laboratory is particularly focused on platelet biology, signalling and function and the role of platelets in thrombus formation. She has expertise in microfluidic technology and in vivo models of thrombosis. She also has had a long-standing interest in a transmembrane protein (BAMBI) which she demonstrated plays an important role in thrombus formation and stability via its function in the endothelium.
Isabelle received a BSc and MSc degrees from Université Blaise Pascal in Clermont-Ferrand, France. She did her PhD and first postdoctoral training at the University of Oklahoma (USA). Isabelle had another postdoctoral position at the KU Leuven in Kortrijk (Belgium) before moving to the UK in the Haemostasis group at Imperial College London. She joined SGUL in September 2021.
Isabelle has published over 35 papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals, and has been funded by the British Heart Foundation including an Intermediate Basic Science Research Fellowship. She is a committee member of the British Society for Thrombosis and Haemostasis, a member of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis and the Platelet Society.
