Summary/Abstract: The Italian physician Giorgio Biandrata (1516–1588) was an important politician and religious reformer in 16th century Transylvania. Historians, especially the Unitarians, perceive him as a person who determined the outcome of the trial of Francis David (1520–1579). Although Biandrata was a key figure in east-central European Antitrinitarianism, there are important details in his life that have been overlooked by historians. He entered Transylvania as a well-known physician, being the protégé of queen Izabella (1519–1559). His early years as a physician are not researched. In Geneva he was drawn to Reformed Protestantism, then in Poland to Antitrinitarianism. In Transylvania he became the adept of liberal Antitrinitarianism.
