Marino Gopcevich, nephew of Spiridione Gopcevich, was born on 17 February 1899 in Trieste,[4] where his family moved from Montenegro to Friuli Venezia Giulia in 1805. He was part of a long line of Trieste physicians going back to Dimitrije Frušić and the Nicolich family of doctors, namely George Nikolic,[5] and his namesake uncle. Gopcevich graduated from the School of Medicine at the University of Padua, then went for post-graduate studies to France where he graduated in Paris.
