Congratulations to all lab members that contributed to this amazing collaborative effort!
A news published also on the @ETH_en website 🤗

❓What survival strategies enable #marinebacteria to chase sinking particles for days under starvation — and how might this shape the ocean’s long-term carbon storage ❓
A joint PriME effort just hot off the press 🔥🥳👇

New preprint! A new direction for my research program: Bacteria can use antagonism to forage for nutrients in microbial communities. Shoot spearguns with toxins into other cells and leak out nutrients!

The inaugural Alma Dal Co School on Collective Behavior will be in Venice (Sep 29-Oct 4, 2025). This unique school honors Alma (1989-2022), whose brilliant work bridging physics and microbiology revealed how metabolic interactions structure microbial communities. @Alma_DalCo 1/12

📢A great example of PriME lab collaboration just published on @eLife! It shows how #MarineBacteria can efficiently time their dispersal from sinking polysaccharides using degradation products & likely #QuorumSensing, avoiding the abyss 😉
Well done 👏
