Absolutely thrilled to share that I’ve been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant for HyperAstroMet! 🚀🧠✨ The next 5 years are going to be an incredible journey — stay tuned for opportunities to join the team! 🙌 Huge thanks to @ERC_Research 💫 #ERCCoG

@maitesolaszu @ERC_Research Maite 🤩🤩🤩 so happy for you!!! Congrats and wishes for this new Astro✨adventure

This is our flag... #democracy #cooperation #HumanRights

Have a close look 😊 to discover how recurrent spontaneous signals in astrocytes drive memory consolidation 🧠✨

The wonderful city of Pisa as a magnificent backdrop for the #SINS2025 conference! Four days of #Neuroscience with old and new friends 😊🧠🔬✨ presenting our results on #astrocyte calcium signal in #AlzheimersDisease and our project on vascular dysfunction in this pathology.

🧬 Elisabeth Binder | @EraNeuron Plenary Lecture What makes us resilient or vulnerable to life’s early challenges? 🌱 On 7 July 2026, hear Prof. Elisabeth Binder (@Binder_Lab) reveal how #genes and #environment shape #MentalHealth. 🧠 #FENS #FENSForum #Neuroscience

Happy to share our latest #review on [#ChronicPain], published with @SpringerNature in Neurochemical Research! A great team work with Di Spiezio Alessandro, Gomez-Gonzalo Marta and Chiavegato Angela ... from Astrolábos lab✨ rdcu.be/eB54C

Exciting Glia meeting 2025 in Marseille ✨🧠🔬🇫🇷 Meeting old and new gliafriends, catching scientific news and getting inspired ⭐ #GLIA2025 #astrocytes #gliologists

If you are at #GLIA2025🧠 come to see our posters 😍 T16-152C: eATP and P2X7R as main drivers of neuroinflammation in AD T18-021C: Characterization of cerebrovascular and gliovascular interface in AD Can't wait for your insights🤗

We are excited to report: Cerebral blood flow is modulated by astrocytic cAMP elevation independently of IP3R2-mediated Ca2+ signaling in mice Vittani et al. PNAS (2025) pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Go astrocytes!!!

Congrats to Marta, Michele and Angela for the publication of this study on #astrocyte #calcium response to #norepinephrine in #VTA ! A tenacious and rigorous analysis 🔬✨️🧠 Read it at mdpi.com/2073-4409/14/1…

Another very interesting and rigorous study by Marta Gomez-Gonzalo and the former Carmignoto lab on #astrocytes in #VTA Congrats to Michele Speggiorin!! mdpi.com/2073-4409/14/1…

@pizzolab22 @NatureComms Congratulations to the team!! 🔬🎆

Thrilled to share our latest work, now published in @NatureComms! A huge team effort to develop a new dynamic chemogenic reporter, enabling simultaneous visualisation of membrane contact sites and Ca²⁺ dynamics nature.com/articles/s4146…

Thrilled to announce that, finally, after a (very very) long way, our paper on the role of astrocytic GLUT1 in energy metabolism is published in @ScienceAdvances . science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Want to know more about it? 👇👇

BASTAAAAA!!!
