Personalization of a computational systems biology model of blood platelet calcium signaling.

Anuclear blood cells, platelets, are the basis for the formation of blood clots in human vessels. While antiplatelet therapy is most often used after ischemic events, there is a need for its personalization due to the limited effectiveness and risks of bleeding. Previously, we developed a series of computational models to describe intracellular platelet signaling and a set of experimental methods to characterize the platelets of a given patient.
