After a brief introduction on the important role played by Bruno Pontecorvo in my scientific life, mainly involved in neutrino physics, I will shortly report the subjects where I could particularly appreciate his greatness which particularly impressed me. I will therefore consider in more details double beta decay especially in its neutrinoless channel were I was and am particularly involved, weak neutral currents, solar neutrinos, neutrino oscillation, determination of the neutrino mass and one unusual research of mine to which Bruno was particularly interested
