Giordano Pula

Dr. Giordano Pula serves as Reader in Cardiovascular Biomedicine at Hull York Medical School, where he is a member of the Centre for Biomedicine and the Biomedical Institute for Multimorbidity. His research investigates platelet and endothelial cell dysfunction in vascular diseases, focusing on oxidative stress mechanisms, platelet-derived microvesicles, and platelet-leukocyte crosstalk in conditions including diabetes, obesity, cancer, and age-related vascular disorders.

Research interests include:

• Platelet Biology and Thrombosis
• Vascular Inflammatory Syndromes
• Oxidative Stress in Disease Pathogenesis
• Platelet-Derived Microvesicles
• Tissue-Degenerative Syndromes
• Drug Discovery for Vascular Protection

Dr. Pula has secured major research funding from BBSRC, ERC, MRC, Wellcome Trust, BHF, and ARUK. His laboratory has produced over 55 peer-reviewed publications in thrombosis and inflammation research, with translational work developing novel small molecules and peptides for vascular therapeutics.
