Elena es la primera mujer de toda la historia que consigue doctorarse. De familia noble veneciana, nace el 5 de junio de 1646. El ser de noble cuna puede explicar que tuviera acceso a estudios normalmente negados a las mujeres, lo que permitió que uno de sus profesores percibiera el gran potencial de esa niña de 7 años que llegó a hablar con fluidez latín, griego, hebreo, español, francés y árabe.
Estudió además música, gramática, matemáticas, filosofía y teología.
A los 14 años hace secretamente voto de castidad y evita a partir de ese momento cualquier intento paterno de casarla.

Aunque estudiaba por el simple placer de aprender, su padre, procurador de San Marco, decidió que continuara sus estudios en la universidad de Padua. Italia estaba más avanzada que el resto de Europa y ya había mujeres que estudiaban ciencias y matemáticas en la universidad, pero Piscopia optó por el doctorado en teología, pero como la iglesia no dejaba que una mujer enseñara a los hombres ,decide preparase el doctorado en filosofía.Su examen de doctorado fue tan brillante que el 25 de junio de 1678 consiguió ser la primera mujer doctorada en el mundo; hay una vidriera en Vassar (U.S.A.) conmemorando este hecho.
Dominó casi todas las ramas del saber, en la universidad de Padua enseñó a estudiantes de toda Europa matemáticas.
Poco después decide ingresar en la orden benedictina y dedicarse a la caridad.
Muere, posiblemente de tuberculosis, el 26 de Julio de 1684. Está enterrada, según sus deseos, en el monasterio San Giustina de Padua. Su obra se publicó después de su muerte, en 1688 en Parma.
