Congratulations *Dr* Ludo, Ludovico Calabrese for a great PhD defense! xkcd.com/1403

Two PhD positions are available in our institute for interdisciplinary projects. See link below to see the project proposed by myself and Luca Ciandrini on quantitative biology and math. modeling of bacteria's adaptation. If interested don't hesitate to contact us. #PhDposition

Great work (and great cover) by our friends Marco Gherardi and MatteoOsella

Now out on Soft Matter : a miraculously simple mean-field theory of single-polymer collapse by crowders, thanks to work from Quentin Chaboche Vittore Scolari, Marjolein Dijkstra and her group. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Very proud of our students at the first IICII Summer School in Quantitative Biology. ifom.eu/events/2024-su… 6/6 student groups performed successful Luria-Delbrück fluctuation tests with excellent data. Presentations tomorrow! ICTP ICGEB Official IFOM Institut Curie

Lots of fun and lots of science with Luca Ciandrini lab @micalilab and our guests Ashley Nord biancasclavi Leonardo Mancini Pietro Cicuta 🌍 🐟🐟🕯🇪🇺 🇮🇹 Gabriel Neurohr

We are grateful to Fondazione AIRC per la ricerca sul cancro for funding our project! In the next 5 years we will work on growth inhibition, arrested cells and cancer persisters.

🚨 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. 🔗 read here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Statistical Physics of Cells and Genomes Simone
