Docteur Alan Nurden
The Prize Danièle Hermann 2012 had been attributed to Doctor Alan Nurden.
Doctor of research at CNRS and director of UMR 5533 for his research on cardiology for the identification of a molecular receptor, involved in arterial thrombosis. In 2001 rewarded by the DistinguishCareerAward, awarded by the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis, Doctor Nurden has widely contributed to the understanding of the molecular pathways, responsible for adhesion and for platelet aggregation, thanks to his studies on rare genetic diseases.
His work has lead to the preparation of new anti-thrombotic therapeutic generations, being more efficient and more selective than those which previously existed. These drugs are widely used in cardio-vascular pharmacology.
