In 1939, he became the head of Zoological Department of Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn. [1]
Since 1940, he was a genetics professor at the University of Naples. [1]
Since 1963, he was a genetics professor at the Sapienza University of Rome. [1]
In 1958, he became the dean of the Faculty of Sciences at the Sapienza. [2]
He was an editor of Enciclopedia Italiana and Dizionario enciclopedico italiano. [2]
He died in Rome at the age of 85. [1]
In 1951, he was elected a member of Accademia dei Lincei, and he was its president in 1981 and in 1985. [1]
