Brilliant paper by @SZapperi & @CAMLaPorta @LaStatale where they estimated #network patterns of #rumours #diffusion at the early onset of the 1789 #French #revolution. A nice example of how quantified #simulation models can help explain relevant puzzles! doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-0…

Durante la Rivoluzione, girava voce che briganti al soldo dei nobili distruggevano raccolti e attaccavano villaggi.
Erano fake news, complimenti a @CAMLaPorta, @SZapperi et al per il paper palpitante!

None of it was true

It's always fascinating to observe cell migration in #confinement in vivo! This study from @SZapperi and @CAMLaPorta et al used intravital multiphoton microscopy to uncover a multicellular, low-cohesion mode of HT1080 collective migration-GX doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2414009…

Il metabolismo delle città
Caterina La Porta e Stefano Zapperi (@LaStatale) usano funzioni scalari "urbane" per descrivere i rapporti socio-economici tra emissioni e inquinamento in città europee con popolazioni paragonabili.

In the beautiful context of Lake Como School of Advanced Studies, students present alternative routing algos developed during lab activities.
Congrats and thanks to everybody for the effort and the innovative ideas!

It is time to assign grants at random.
Do we waste all that time writing grants?
A controlled study by @arnoutvanderijt finds we do:
CV without the grant proposal has no difference in ranking compared to CV with the grant.
