A mother on Friday gave the oral
presentation of the degree thesis of her son, a mountaineer who
died in an accident on Monte Cervino earlier this month.
The student had handed in the thesis for his biology degree
shortly before the accident.
"It was the most natural, just and normal thing to do," said
the mother, Cristina Giordana.
"I'm surprised by all the attention".
The thesis was about the effects of beetroot juice in
sporting performance at high altitude.
