A UNC blood clot expert & NASA enthusiast Stephan Moll was consulted by the NASA when it found that an astronaut aboard the ISS had a deep vein thrombosis or blood clot in the jugular vein of their neck. Moll's reaction when NASA reached out was to ask if he could visit the ISS to examine the patient himself. NASA told him they can't get him to space quickly, so he proceeded with the evaluation & treatment process from here.
