Covid-19 took away Beppe Basso today, for many years pediatrician oncologist of our University – he says Rosario Rizzuto, rector of the University of Padua -. Valuable scientist and passionate doctor, Professor Basso with competence and determination applied the advances of science to the care of very young patients, who in the difficult moments of the disease found in him the most effective therapies and a friendly smile. Intelligent, critical, ironic, never banal, I remember many heated discussions of him, animated by a common passion for science and a deep mutual esteem. We all will miss it. On behalf of the entire University, I express the pain and affection of our community to family members “
