The purpose of this research is to study is to obtain blood samples from volunteers from which clots can be created. Blood clots are important to study because they occur in so many different medical conditions such as stroke, myocardial infarction (heart attack), pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs), and deep venous thrombosis (DVT ). Through this research we hope to gather data that may be used for future studies and to find potential treatments for stroke.
