:: ::

Welcome to Ask Stago, the podcast dedicated to provide expert answers to your expert questions in haemostasis. 


In today episode, our expert Marisa Ninivaggi, research project leader at Synapse research institute, will explain us what is thrombin generation. 


As usual, don’t forget to send any question you may have to Ask@stago.com, we will be glad to answer to it.
