Latest updates

IFOM

The lab is embracing a new beginning

From October 2025, we embark on a new adventure at IFOM — the AIRC Institute for Molecular Oncology. Our research will focus on unraveling the RNA regulatory networks that drive tumor plasticity and disease progression.

RNA Salon

Milan RNA salon is finally starting

We are one of 26 laboratories from 12 institutions in the Milan area supporting the RNA salon — meetings fully dedicated to discussing new findings on RNA biology. A special thanks to Ivano Legnini @ Human Technopole.

EMBO Workshop

EMBO workshop — The Spatial Biology of Cancer

Great feedback from all participants. We learnt a lot about spatial omics, generative AI, and modern pathology at the Francis Crick Institute in London.
