GTH 2021: ACROSS BORDERS

“Bienvenue!”, “Benvenuti!”, “Willkommen!”, “Welcome!” to the GTH 2021 congress, simply online … worth experiencing. During the Opening Ceremony, which will take place on Monday, February 22, you will enjoy, among other inspiring presentations (check on www.gth2021.org), the Alexander Schmidt Lecture held by the Awardee Markus Bender. The corresponding manuscript by Bender and Palankar,[1] masterfully summarizing recent findings on the contribution of the actin cytoskeleton and lamellipodia structures to platelet function, opens this year's congress issue of Hämostaseologie – Progress in Haemostasis.
