Father 's criminal anthropology, psychiatrist, pioneer of studies on criminology as well as the founder of forensic science: Cesare Lombroso is certainly one of the figures of the Italian scientist best known and most controversial of the second half of the nineteenth century.
The Academy of Medicine pays tribute to one of its most famous exponents May 22 in a conference to mark the centenary of the death on " Lombroso TURIN, A CENTURY AFTER "

It offers an insight society and notably on the mid-800 Torino, a city filled with great economic and cultural ferment, just remember that between 88 and 89 stayed even Nietzsche. The conference traces the relationship between Lombroso and some characters that have marked the history of forensic medicine and beyond. First, the friendship with Giulio Bizzozero, internationally renowned pathologist, the two meet at Pavia, after Bizzozero moved to Turin in 1876 and you can also come to Lombroso.
Remember also the story of Salvatore Ottolenghi, disciple and collaborator of
Lombroso in Turin. In 1904, the Master ago to establish a chair of forensic science at the University of Siena, which was entrusted to Otto. Later he founded the modern Rome University Institute of Forensic Medicine and in 1908 the Institute of Police, the first known school that teaches police officers the scientific methods as a model in many countries. Experts in dealing with the bibliography and the main features of the theories of Lombroso, delineate the influences on psychiatry of medical and doctrines of 900, with references also to the modern specialized studies. Lombroso - in his tireless search for the characters that differentiate the sane, insane and criminals - was a gauge of the anatomical characters of the different categories of subjects and brain are then analyzed their results in light of the acquisitions of modern imaging techniques.
IL Museums and the "harvest" of Lombroso
By the year is expected the reopening of the Museum of Criminal Anthropology, founded by Lombroso in 1898. The conference will discuss the problems of the reorganization, exposure and enjoyment by the public collections of Lombroso.

Returning to civilian life continues and the tireless collection also confesses "with the ways less legitimate, "that is, through the looting of abandoned cemeteries Sardinian Valtellina and Piedmont Lucca, executed personally by his students and friends. The collection of skulls is enriched with many contributions from abroad, gifts that show a widespread and keen interest in his research.
Lombroso died in 1909 left instructions that his body is subjected to autopsy and the remains preserved as a museum (where he still has his face exposed, preserved in formalin). It also asks that he is unstinting in funeral and burial, but that request is not complied with at all: it is reminiscent of a tombstone of the monumental cemetery of Turin, close to those the painter Antonio Fontanesi and writer Arturo Graf.
STUDIES NEWS AND LITTLE KNOWN
Less well-known scientific contributions of Professor regarding the investigation of cretinism, goiter and pellagra, and research to determine and differentiate the white man than the color: in these studies come to predict - with more than a century in advance - that a black man would reach the summit of world power. And finally, research on fisiopsichici characters to distinguish the sane from the insane persons and criminals, and those on the essence of genius. In total, nearly 2000 writings. Among the collaborators
famous deserves a mention Camillo Golgi, Lombroso scholar who graduated in Medicine in Pavia in 1865. In 1906 Golgi was awarded the Nobel Prize ex aequo with the English Ramon y Cajal for his invention of a method of staining nerve cells of the cerebral cortex based sull'impregnazione Argentina that allows the study under the microscope.
