🚨 Could treating less and resting more be the key to smarter #cancer therapies? 💡💊 Our latest preprint shows how math models can shape intermittent therapies to exploit cancer #persisters and achieve better outcomes.

We are grateful to @AIRC_it for funding our project! In the next 5 years we will work on growth inhibition, arrested cells and cancer persisters.
Lots of fun and lots of science with @LucaCiandrini lab @micalilab and our guests @AshleyLNord @biancaSclavi @mlaenoc @pcicuta @GabrielNeurohr

Direct single-cell observation of a key Escherichia coli cell-cycle oscillator | Science Advances
Our paper on the coupling of the oscillations in DnaA activity and expression with cell size is now published !
A great ongoing collaboration with @SPCGgroup.
Now out on @ScienceAdvances

Replying to @SPCGgroup
@SPCGgroup preprint: we follow for the first time the DnaA cell-cycle oscillator in single E. coli cells, and find that activity+dosage oscillations do not behave as initiations- with @IlariaIuliani @biancaSclavi , bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

It was fun to listen to great science, discuss with top scientists, see old friends (and also not bad to eat great food, and enjoy great sights) @polstnet @ictpnews @jacrickets

Two PhD positions are available in our institute for interdisciplinary projects. See link below to see the project proposed by myself and @LucaCiandrini on quantitative biology and math. modeling of bacteria's adaptation. If interested don't hesitate to contact us. #PhDposition
The i-Bio international PhD Program 2024 is opening 2 PhD positions in co-supervision to work at the interface between biology and other scientific disciplines. Application are open until April 15, 2024
