Abstract
Agustin Pasqual Dalmasso died in December 2021. He was 88 years old and an Honorary Member of the International Xenotransplantation Association. Gus made seminal contributions to understanding and overcoming the barrier complement system poses to xenotransplantation. Those endeavoring to advance xenotransplantation to clinical application and those seeking the most topics in which to devote their life's work could do no better than examining how Gus approached the subjects of his life's work.
