He immediately started a brilliant scientific career, collaborated with pharmaceuticals companies dedicated to patients with specific skin disease. The university career will lead him to be the first Director of the Istitute of Physiology in Siena, then Head of the Pharmacy Faculty and then Dean of the same University.<\/p>\n<p>Giovanni is an excellent studious, he has worked in Siena, then in Pisa; he went to Germany to enrich his knowledge, when back to Siena again he plunged into the academic work but with the desire to enjoy what Nature offers and in 1950 he bought an agricultural property in Chianti where he will transfer all his Science Man&#8217;s rigour.<\/p>\n<p>Cultivating grapevines and olive trees to produce wine and oil, aromatic plants to produce cosmetics and perfumes was an unbelievable adventure that period: Chianti wine was not as famous as today and Officinal Plants occupied only dusty herbals stored on the shelves of ancient Pharmacies and Universities.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards Giovanni with other doctors and other pharmacists of the D\u00f2mini family would continue this fasinating job by developing it with passion, culture and creativity.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;989&#8243; img_size=&#8221;600&#215;815&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;994&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1492852766591{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Lorenzo<\/strong> graduated in Medicine and Surgery in 1983 with the highest score, he attended the specialization in Internal Medicine and the doctorate in Clinical Pharmacology.
