Its authors were kind enough to mention me in the acknowledgments section.Zufferey P, Merquiol F, Laporte S et al. (2006) Do antifibrinolytics reduce allogeneic blood transfusion in orthopedic surgery? Anesthesiology 105(5):1034–46.You can access the full article via this link:https://doi.org/10.1097/00000542-200611000-00026 - EMKATechnical WriterJanuary 2007 - December 2011 (4 years and 11 months)Paris, FranceTHEIR ACTIVITY:EMKA develops and distributes electronic devices and scientific software for biomedical research.THEIR MAIN CLIENTS:Researchers conducting toxicology and safety pharmacology studies.MY FUNCTIONS:I was responsible for the design and writing of all company documentation, including user manuals, application notes, product sheets, and scientific articles.
