Lazzaro Spallanzani bol taliansky biológ a fyziológ, ktorého práca sa vyznačovala hlbokým záujmom o skúmanie životných procesov prostredníctvom prísnej experimentálnej metódy. Svojím výskumom spochybnil teóriu samovoľného vzniku života a skúmal reprodukciu živočíchov, vrátane prvého pokusu o umelé oplodnenie. Spallanzani tiež urobil priekopnícke objavy v oblasti echolokácie u netopierov a v pochopení trávenia ako chemického roztoku, čím položil základy modernej vedy.
