Abstract
Despite his current dedication to cardiology, as a young boy Roberto Ferrari, MD, PhD, FESC, wanted to be an architect. But the late 1960s represented a difficult time for the Faculty of Architecture in Italy, as it was more involved in political issues than in teaching architecture. So, he chose medicine. He now serves as professor of cardiology at the University of Ferrara, director of the clinical cardiology department at the University Hospital of Ferrara, and director of the Centre of Cardiovascular Research S. Maugeri, part of the S. Maugeri Foundation. However, he still maintains an interest in design, as is shown by his many innovative and colourful books and publications.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
