Giuseppe Attardi (September 14, 1923 – April 5, 2008) was an American

mitochondrial structure and function.[3][4][5]

Attardi was awarded two

Gairdner Foundation International Award in 1998 for his contributions to medical science[7] and was selected jointly with Douglas C. Wallace for the 2000 Passano Award "for their landmark contributions to the mitochondrial genome project and their development of innovative methods for studying mitochondrial genetics and human disease".[8]

He was a member of the

United States National Academy of Sciences
from 1984.
