🚨New paper alert! Insights into disordered systems 🌀 What happens when interactions fluctuate in time 🫨 instead of staying fixed 🥶? We explore annealed disorder—a new twist over quenched disorder—in which interactions are stochastic processes... 🔗iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

Can a simple stochastic differential equation accurately describe specific features of microbiome growth-rate distribution? The work "Growth-rate distributions of gut microbiota time series", developed with S. Azaele during my visit at @LIPh_Lab, is out: rdcu.be/d67S9

I was so happy to present our last work, in which we use DFA to study the role of prenatal experience in shaping newborns' neural activity after speech stimulation, at Judit Gervain's ERC closing workshop! thank you Judit for inviting me @BUnipd @LIPh_Lab @PNC_UniPD @brain_crit – at Padua, Veneto

New paper from the lab to systematically reduce multi-dimensional systems to an effective one-dimensional representation, and go beyond mean-field analysis of reaction-diffusion systems 👀 👉arxiv.org/abs/2404.11366 A short thread follows 👇 1/

💡Early selection is favored by resource-binding strength; later, intra- and inter-individual interactions took the forefront, shedding light on the role of mutualism and parasitism. Thx to tommasobellini.com/ @LIPh_Lab , the collab. will continue! elifesciences.org/articles/9…

The observed pattern of viral spread depends on the driving factors, but also on our detection capacity, which is heterogenous in space and time. This makes observations hard to decipher. We tackled this challenge in the context of early SARS-CoV2 Alpha international invasion

🧬 Check out our latest #eLife paper @LIPh_Lab! We've developed a novel experimental platform to study eco-evolutionary dynamics in a simplified environment. Think of it as evolution in a test tube, focusing on DNA strands competing for survival elifesciences.org/reviewed-p… 1/5

Deciphering the gene-organism-environment triad is key to understanding microbiomes. But to go beyond who's there, we need to identify relevant coarse-grained physiological traits from (meta)genomes. Fill in forms.gle/CaXN8fNNdJkCT5Dw9 to show interest in a KITP program about this!
