October 11-12, 2022

HEmostatic REsuscitation and Trauma Induced Coagulopathy (HERETIC) Symposium

Overview

The University of Pittsburgh’s Center for Military Medicine Research and the Trauma and Transfusion Medicine Research Center, along with McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine and in collaboration with the THOR Network, present the inaugural HEmostatic REsuscitation and Trauma Induced Coagulopathy (HERETIC) Symposium.

Intent and Objectives

Our intent is to bring together a rich mix of researchers, providers, the Department of Defense, and private and public research program managers in order to present the current state of the science, stimulate discussion, and build connections that are only possible through this forum. This symposium is designed to disseminate and discuss the most up-to-date research and best practices in the field of hemostatic resuscitation and trauma induced coagulopathy and celebrate the growing partnerships and research opportunities available through private and public research programs.
