During the course of the medical school, he devoted himself to electron microscopy, particularly of the connective tissue, spending many months at the Medizinische Hochschule, Abteilung Elektronenmikroskopie, in Hannover, Germany. He pionereed the application of special techniques such as freeze-etching and freeze-fracture to the connective tissue, and in particular to cartilage and tendons.

He began the residency in orthopaedic surgery in 1981 at the Clinica Ortopedica e Traumatologica dell’Università di Pavia, San Matteo Hospital, Chairman Prof. Mario Boni.

After he completed the orthopaedic education in 1985, he became clinical assistant in the same hospital in the Section of Sports Traumatology, until 1990, when he

- tendinopathies in athletes and functional overload injuries (from basic reasearch to conservative and surgical treatment and rehabilitation) - experimental osteoarthritis in animals

- spine osteoarthritis (uncus formation and neurovascular compression in the cervical spine; surgical treatment of the spondylotic myelopathy)

- bone – metal interface in orthopaedic implants - cementing techniques
