We've spent the last year building something at @humantechnopole.bsky.social that we think is genuinely needed: #AI that works across biological scales and data modalities, not just within them. A thread on what we're doing, why, and who we're looking for. A 🧵... 1/9
New preprint by @nereokalebic.bsky.social linking progenitor morphology, gene expression and fate, revealing that human basal radial glia morphotypes are transcriptionally distinct and exhibit different cell fate determination 🧪🧠🧬

Oh well, we forgot to take a picture altogether at the end of our talks #SfN2025…but we did make sure we had good food to celebrate our love for #radialglia and #astrocytes 😌
Who is coming to #SfN2025?
Join our minisymposium on Monday at 2 pm 😍👇
@nereokalebic.bsky.social and I can't wait to chair this minisymposium bridging most of our dearest research interests!

🧠 Can we fight rare brain cancers in a dish? Our @nereokalebic.bsky.social and Blagoje Soskic just won $1.3M from the Gilbert Family Foundation to build the first 3D models of NF1 gliomas, mimicking tumour growth and immune interactions.

My group @humantechnopole.bsky.social is searching for a #postdoc to work at the interface between #neurodevelopment and #cancerbiology focusing on neurofibromatosis type 1: careers.humantechnopole.it/job/Postdoc-...
It was a great experience to represent @nereokalebic.bsky.social lab and present our work, linking shape and function in glioblastoma, at the goodbye flat biology conference by @helloeacr.bsky.social
This conference was a source of food for thought and a fantastic networking opportunity
Insightful @cp-cellreports.bsky.social study by Chiara Ossala @stefaniafaletti.bsky.social @nereokalebic.bsky.social & collaborators establishing adducins as critical regulators of neural progenitor proliferation and fate 🧪🧬🧠

Thanks Cedric!
This is a great team work by Chiara Ossola, Nikola Cokorac, Emanuele Capra and @stefaniafaletti.bsky.social with support of Ilaria Bertani, our amazing services and facilities @humantechnopole.bsky.social and in collaboration with Elena Taverna group.
Check out our new paper linking morphoregulatory adducins with neural progenitor proliferation and neurogenesis:
Back from #ISSCR2025, where I showed how cell morphology is a new layer of heterogeneity in glioblastoma and controls clinically relevant features with therapeutic promises.
Grateful for the support from @nereokalebic.bsky.social and @humantechnopole.bsky.social and for exciting new collaborations!
Enormous thanks to @k4tj4.bsky.social for fantastically following the conference at bluesky!
Three amazing days of the #neurogen2025 conference at @humantechnopole.bsky.social in Milan. Many thanks to all the participants, speakers and fellow co-organizers. We heard fantastic talks in #neurodevelopment #brainevolution #cancerneuroscience #neuroimmunology #neurodegeneration #neurodiversity
Very proud of Carlotta Barelli’s talk on our efforts to link glioblastoma stem cell morphology with clinical functions #neurogen2025 @humantechnopole.bsky.social
Looking forward to amazing days of talks&discussions #neurogen25 –Neurodev, evolution, de-& regeneration, organoids &more at @humantechnopole.bsky.social with @r3rt0.bsky.social
Thanks to organisers @nereokalebic.bsky.social @harschnitz.bsky.social Jose Davila-Velderrain,Giuseppe Testa,Elena Taverna

There will be a great #neurogenomics conference @humantechnopole.bsky.social in Milan (@harschnitz.bsky.social is one of the organizers). Grateful to have been invited alongside (some joined 🦋 recently):
@silvianeuro.bsky.social @sergiuppasca.bsky.social 1/
🔬Our Kalebic group with our @francescoiorio.bsky.social Group identified ADD3 as a key gene driving glioblastoma stem cell shape and tumour connectivity, uncovering growth and therapy resistance
