Francesco Redi was born in Arezzo, Italy, and studied philosophy and medicine at the University of Pisa. He became the personal physician to the Medici family, who were the rulers of Tuscany at the time.

Redi is best known for his series of experiments in 1668 that refuted the then widely held belief in spontaneous generation.
