New human model for muscle-induced cancer cachexia
We developed neuromuscular organoid platform to study tumor-induced muscle wasting
Grateful to all co-authors and supporters @AIRC_it @DMM_Unipd @cittadlsperanza

I’m terrible at posting things on time 🙈
A huge thank you to Matteo Bernardello from the @LabTrivedi @EMBLBarcelona for visiting our lab! Fantastic science, inspiring discussions & lots of ideas exchanged. A truly enriching experience for me and the team! 🙌
What a great experience at #devhdbi2026! 🧬✨
Luigi and Valentina from our lab joined the congress discussing some of our latest NMO data.
A big thank to the organizers for creating such a brilliant meeting! 🙌🔬 Lots of new ideas, fresh perspectives, and plenty of inspiration!
News from the lab! Pietro received the Best Poster Presentation award at the ABCD PhD National Meeting and we have been funded as partner in a @GraziellaMessi1 project by @Fondaz_Telethon 🎉🎉

Great science at the IRP retreat! Congratulations to Beatrice Auletta and Pietro Chiolerio for winning Best Scientific Image and Best Poster Presentation 🏆
Honored to receive the Famiglia Masello Award, in memory of Rita Masello and Virginio Zilio.
@cittadlsperanza @DMM_Unipd
I was truly honoured to have been invited to contribute to @ENABLE_conf, 3 days embedded into great science and profound discussion with and for the future scientists! It was fantastically organised from the start to the end! Congrats to organisers and supporters! #ENABLE2025
Just published! 🎉 We engineered functional neuromuscular organoids (t-NMOs) from hiPSCs using skeletal muscle ECM to study human muscle function and disease in vitro!

Findings from this @NatureComms study unravel the roles of matrix viscoelasticity in #epigenetic regulation and cell reprogramming, with implications for designing smart materials for cell fate engineering.

Here we go!!
Our manuscript is out. Thanks to Lucia, Beatrice, our collaborators and fundings for the contribution to build up this nice story about “ Engineering assembloids to mimic graft-host skeletal muscle interaction “. @cittadlsperanza @DMM_Unipd

Our lab joined @AIRC_it today!!
Support cancer research by visiting AIRC stands across Italy🍊
Tired but HAPPY faces: funded by FIS Consolidator Grant! 🎉 More than three years of dedication and effort have led us here. Ready to take our engineered neuromuscular organoid research to the next level.
Grateful to everyone who supported us along the way. See you in 2025! 🙌

Honored to be at the Quirinale for #IGiornidellaRicerca with @AIRC_it
Grateful to be part of this community!
📣 Si sono aperti questa mattina #IGiornidellaRicerca, la campagna che dal 1995 informa l’opinione pubblica sui progressi della ricerca oncologica per la prevenzione, diagnosi e cura del cancro, e coinvolge i cittadini alla donazione per sostenere il lavoro dei 6000 ricercatori e ricercatrici AIRC.
Il ricco palinsesto di appuntamenti dei Giorni della Ricerca è iniziato con la Cerimonia a Palazzo del Quirinale, alla presenza del Presidente della Repubblica Italiana Sergio Mattarella, e proseguirà fino a domenica 17 novembre, dando vita a una vera e propria staffetta della #ricerca.
Nel corso della cerimonia sono stati assegnati i Premi "Credere nella Ricerca" e il Premio scientifico biennale AIRC “Guido Venosta”.
Sono intervenuti il Ministro dell’Università e della Ricerca Anna Maria Bernini, il Ministro della Salute orazio schillaci, Andrea Sironi, Presidente AIRC, Anna Mondino, Direttrice scientifica AIRC, e Alessio Menga, ricercatore AIRC presso l'Università del Piemonte Orientale.
La cerimonia è visibile in streaming qui ➡️ lc.cx/dp5K4D
