"Morgagni's scholarly ability was apparent at an early age. At sixteen he was a pupil of Valsalva at Bologna, and there he received the stimulus to devote his life to pathology. By 1715 he took the chair of anatomy at Padua, a seat which he held with utmost distinction for many years. He was a brilliant and tireless investigator and, in addition to his work in medicine and anatomy, was a student of the classics and an archaeologist of repute." - Heirs of Hippocrates, 789 [later printing]. / Morgagni's Adversaria (1717-19), Epistolae Anatomicae duae (1728), and Epistolae Anatomicae duodeviginti (1740), "represent new contributions to the mechanical interpretation of the structure of the organism." - DSB, IX, p. 511. / Morgagni, Italian pathologist, teacher, and anatomist, is considered one of the founders of pathological anatomy.
