Dr Yuping Yuan received her PhD from Monash University in 1994. She then worked in the Thrombosis Group, initially at the Australian Centre for Blood Diseases, Monash University between 1995–2015, and then relocated with the Group to HRI and the Charles Perkins Centre at The University of Sydney.

Yuping’s research focus is centred around the field of haemostasis and thrombosis, with a specific interest in platelet biology, signalling, death, and more recently the crosstalk between thrombosis (platelets) and inflammation (leukocytes). In her role as Senior Research Fellow, Yuping continues to be involved in the overall direction and supervision of research projects for postdoctoral fellows, PhD and honours students.
