Microbial Ecology Group at Humanitas

It’s so great to be back among ecologists at #BES2025!
I will be presenting a poster of my recent work at @micalilab.bsky.social on bacterial cross-feeding interactions

The first day of our scientific retreat is coming to an end. 4 more days of microbial ecology and physiology with
@spcggroup.bsky.social and Luca Ciandrini (Multiscale Molecular Modelling, CBS)

The Hands-On Growth Laws Theory Cookbook This tutorial covers the emerging field of coarse-grained cellular growth modeling, and aims to bridge the gap between theoretical foundations and practical application. By adopting an original "cookb...

Thanks to Rossana Droghetti for coordinating the heavy lift.

It was so much fun talking to people about bacterial cross-feeding! #FEMS2025

What a great opening day! #FEMS2025

If you think microfluidics and bacterial cross-feeding are cool, I will have a talk and a poster at #FEMS2025 next week. The rest of @micalilab.bsky.social will be there too!

Hi all!

We are the Group of Microbial Ecology, at IRCCS Humanitas in Milan, Italy.

To understand how microbial cells grow and interact in communities, we develop theoretical models and test them with microfluidics.

We are always on the lookout for multidisciplinary people (MSc, PhD, Postdoc)!
