He continued his medical studies with Girolamo Cardano at Pavia and practised for several years at Asso near Como. From this period of his life dates his correspondence. He embraced the Reformation, became one of the Protestant leaders of Locarno and had to emigrate, when the Protestants were banned in 1555. He found a new home in Zürich, where he became town physician in 1567.Among his numerous friends were Conrad Gesner, Heinrich Bullinger, and Bernardino Ochino, whose Dialogo del Purgatorio he translated into Latin in 1555. Apart several medical works and school books, he wrote a history of the persecution of the Protestants in his native city (cf. F. Mayer, Die evangelische Gemeninde in Locarno, Zürich, 1836, I, pp. 249-246 and II, p. 341; and A. Chenou, Teddeo Duno, in: ?Bollettino della Società di Studi Valdesi?, 120, 1966, pp. 55-62). Book.
