title: Deciphering the physiological pathway of clotting of fibrinogen in blood plasma.
abstract: I have been fortunate to have benefited over the years from the friendship and advice of John Ferry in our research to decipher the physiological reactions and regulatory events involved in the clotting of fibrinogen in blood. The article is a tribute to the memory of this creative scientist and remarkable individual.
