DIOSCORIDEA: The origin of our name
Our company name is the fusion between a person's name (Dioscorides) and a philosophical term (idea).
Dioscorides (Pedanius), Anazarbus (Πεδάνιος Διοσκουρίδης) 40-90 A.D., was a doctor, botanist and pharmacist practicing his art in Rome. Very famous during the following centuries was his work in 5 books, the "De Materia Medica". His figure synthesizes our greatest passion: the scientific knowledge in the sector of Life Sciences.
According to Plato, the Idea is the ontological foundation of reality: ideas are the reason that makes the world, the "forms" with which the Demiurge shaped it. They are also the cause that allows us to think about the world; they are therefore the prerequisite of knowledge.
