Those who knew Prof. Gonzalo Herranz Rodríguez share a common feeling in which respect and admiration are intermingled, transmitted from a natural and simple personality. He generated a remarkable capacity for attraction. In the broad field of bioethics he has left an indelible example of passionate and tenacious defence of scientific truth, both in the multiple facets that mark the daily life of medical action with respect to the sick, and in his clear international leadership when it was necessary to point out where authenticity was to be found in the biological findings on the first stages of the human embryo that later enable correct medical action to be guaranteed. His tenacious effort in the search for scientific truth, together with his defence of an attitude of closeness and humanity towards the patient, stemmed both from his rigour in the study of illness and his gifts of fine observation that allowed him to find solutions, a mixture of science and humanity, to the thousand incidences of medical action. For this reason, it is necessary to disseminate his work, as it constitutes a reference that marks the level of quality that is required for correct medical action. |
