I present Luciano Martini from some points of view that seem secondary but that have greatly influenced his scientific activity and his person: the comparison between the times in which Luciano began his scientific activity and the current situation in biomedical research, his encounter in Milan with professor Emilio Trabucchi, an enlightened and courageous Professor of pharmacology, his contribution to the development of experimental Endocrinology in Italy and worldwide and his ability to transport the scientific mentality to renew academic institutions. I close with a reminder of his work on Jeorge Chavez’s flight over the Alps and with a comment by Luigi Barzini “The car was destroyed and man was destroyed. But of the prodigious fact remains the memory that will never be destroyed†which is well suited to summarizing our emotion in remembering Luciano Martini today.
