- Giorgio Prodi (August 12, 1928, Scandiano, Italy – December 4, 1987, Bologna, Italy) was an Italian medical scientist, oncologist and semiotician. He studied medicine and chemistry at the University of Bologna. From 1958, he taught general pathology and experimental oncology in the same university. He held Italy's first Chair of Oncology. In 1973 he founded the Institute of Cancerology at Bologna, of which he became the first director. He published a series of books on the philosophy of medicine and biology. Together with Thomas Sebeok and Thure von Uexküll, he developed a semiotic approach in biology (biosemiotics) in his works of the 1970s and 1980s. Umberto Eco appreciated Prodi's approach in semiotics. He was also a writer of fiction. His semi-autobiographical novel Lazzaro (a fictionalised biography of his fellow Scandianese and fellow scientist Lazzaro Spallanzani) was awarded the Premio Grinzane Cavour in 1986. The Institute of Cancerology in the University of Bologna was renamed the "Giorgio Prodi" Centre of Cancer Research Archived 2008-05-02 at the Wayback Machine in his honour. The Giorgio Prodi Lecture Hall in the former monastery of San Giovanni in Monte is also named after him. (en)
