Lea Del Bo Rossi

Lea Del Bo Rossi (1903–1978), also known as Lea Rossi Del Bo, was an Italian medical researcher who studied clinical microscopy and neurohistopathology.

Life and work Lea Del Bo was born on 4 March 1903 in Cassano Magnago, Italy, to Adele Mazzucchelli and Dr. Luigi Del Bo. After high school, she enrolled at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Pavia and studied clinical microscopy and neurohistopathology with Camillo Golgi (1843–1926), Luigi Sala (1863–1930), Edoardo Perroncito (1847–1936) and Scipione Riva-Rocci (1863–1937). She graduated with honours in 1925.

Del Bo Rossi published a collection of her most significant research in 1974, just a few years before she died, hoping to publicise her contributions and finally obtain the visibility and public recognition that she felt had escaped her. Her collection, The nervous system studied with a new technique, Consents and evaluations, included comments from some of her followers, both domestic and international. Rossi Del Bo, Lea.
