In Memory of Raffaele Gianotti

Dear Colleagues,

We have the privilege of dedicating this Special Issue to the memory of Prof. Raffaele Gianotti who sadly passed away very recently. Prof. Gianotti was a distinguished dermatopathologist and one of the most important names and pioneers of Italian dermatopathology. His essential vision of dermatopathology without frills, as the product of an indispensable integration between the clinic and the microscope has guided his work for decades. His inexhaustible academic energy, unwavering commitment and substantial contributions to cutaneous pathology were an inspiration to all of us. We are very lucky that we have had the privilege and honor of knowing two great Italian dermatologists, the father, Prof. Ferdinando Gianotti who described the "papular acrodermatitis of childhood (Gianotti-Crosti syndrome)", and the son, Prof. Raffaele Gianotti, a legendary dermatopathologist.

Raffaele, thank you for what you have done for dermatopathology, rest in peace, we will never forget you.
