Nicola Ardenghi, Curator of the Botanical Garden of the University of Pavia (Italy).
“My passion for Botany was born on the benches of the University of Pavia, which immediately provided me with the tools necessary for this scientific discipline to become first the object of my research and finally my profession. Among herbariums, libraries and field activities, I had the luck to mature the experience that today allows me to make a contribution to the Botanical Garden, an institution that has seen the succession of prominent naturalists such as Giovanni Antonio Scopoli, Giuseppe Moretti, Giovanni Briosi and Luigi Montemartini.”

«Studying at the University of Pavia allowed us to establish relations with our teachers that went beyond the professor-student relationship: the always open doors and the numerous field activities allowed exchanges that did not stop at teaching, giving students the opportunity to perceive how we were not only developing solid technical-scientific skills, but also a more spontaneous approach in managing interpersonal relationships.»
