I am a geneticist by training with a strong interest in understanding the molecular basis of phenotypic variation, a grand scientific question that gradually pushed me to hang up the pipettes and transition to […]
With a PhD on microbial genomics applied to Food Safety at the University of Bologna (Italy), and a post-doc on genomic surveillance of bacterial foodborne pathogens, Federica PALMA specialised in phenotypic and genotypic characterisation […]
I currently work at the “Architecture and dynamics of biological macromolecules” lab at Pasteur Institute. We use molecular biology and biochemical tools to study the shape and function of polymerases.
Basile is PhD student funded by the Doctoral school BioSPC. His project focuses on the biogenesis of the outer membrane in diderm Terrabacteria.
Introduction. Cell-to-cell variation affects all biological systems and processes, from stem cells and development, to immunology or cancer. Conventional population (bulk) measurements provide averaged information that does not reveal cellular individuality and masks extreme […]
