⏳ The registration deadline for #INCTN2025 is fast approaching — 31 Aug! Don’t miss the chance to join us in Padova 🇮🇹 this September for exciting neuroscience discussions 🧠✨ 👉 Register here: registrations.meetandwork.com/Login.asp?ID... ℹ️ More info: www.incn.it/registration/

Check out our recent paper just out in Physical Review E! journals.aps.org/pre/abstract... with Alice Doimo, @giorgionicoletti.bsky.social, Davide Bernardi We look into stochasticity arising from finite carrying capacity in classical metapopulation models to understand survival statistics.

Better late than never: it's time to tell you about my main project at EPFL 🇨🇭! What happens in competitive metacommunities when you take into account spatial structure and habitat heterogeneity? Once more, a great collaboration with @lambdapp and the people at @liphlab! www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...

Balanced excitatory and inhibitory neuron activity is crucial for optimal brain information processing, highlighting the importance of neural network stability in encoding external signals effectively. doi.org/g87h5w

🚨 Postdoc Opportunity! 🚨 Join our team www.liphlab.com for a 2-year postdoc on soil microbiome resilience! We combine macroecology, metagenomics & modeling to study how agri-practices & climate stressors shape microbial communities. 🔗 Start before Dec 2025. Contact: sandro dot azaele at unipd.it

Check out our latest research! We apply the framework of annealed disorder to ecological modeling 🌍👇

PREPRINT OUT 💡 We show how consumer-resource communities with colored-noise fluctuations violate the competitive exclusion principle and give rise to realistic ecological structures arxiv.org/abs/2502.13720

We have many cool results coming up! So it's the perfect time to tell you about some of the projects we've worked on in the last two years, between UniPD 🇮🇹, EPFL 🇨🇭 and now ICTP 🇺🇳 - starting from ecology 🌲 with @lambdapp.bsky.social and the people of @liphlab.bsky.social www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
