In the medical school Malpighi attracted the attention of Professor Massari, who was not only a teacher but an investigator, and in 1653 obtained the degree of doctor in medicine and philosophy.
He had used the microscope on human tissues with such good effect that one of the lavers of the skin is still called the rete Malpighi; certain bodies in the spleen and in the kidneys are called by his name, and important discoveries in the liver are due to him.

 Francesco Redi. Scienziato e poeta alla Corte dei Medici - Corrispondenti rediani - Marcello Malpighi
Redi aveva conosciuto personalmente Malpighi negli anni in cui l'anatomista bolognese aveva insegnato a Pisa.
Anche in seguito Redi e Malpighi continuarono a scambiarsi lettere, nelle quali si lamentavano dei rispettivi acciacchi e malanni renali, protestandosi di pregare e di far dire messe per la salute l'uno dell'altro.
Malpighi portò avanti un serrato confronto a distanza con Redi, mediato da Francesco D'Andrea ed Antonio Baldigiani, sul tema controverso degli insetti delle galle, riuscendo in breve tempo a dimostrare che Redi aveva sbagliato e che anche questi organismi erano generati da uova deposte da individui adulti della stessa specie.

During the 17th century, Marcello Malpighi introduced microscopy to medicine, discovered capillaries (among many other things), and offended his learned peers.
In 1689, in the awesome presence of ecclesiastical dignitaries, a full-scale formal indictment was pronounced on Malpighi at Rome...
In addition to rejecting microscopy as worthless, the indictment's next three theses declared Malpighi's assertions about capillaries to be untrue, comparative anatomy to be irrelevant to medicine, and human anatomy to be useful only for description.
