Giuseppe Moscati was an Italian physician, researcher, and university professor who lived in Naples and Benevento during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born into a noble family in 1880, his interest in medicine was inspired by the care provided to his brother following a severe accident. He became a pioneer in the fields of endocrinology and biochemistry, notably introducing insulin therapy to Italy. Recognized for both his scientific expertise and his profound religious devotion, he was later canonized by the Catholic Church.
