Welcome to Nils Giordano

Nils Giordano joined the PhAN Joint Research Unit in September 2026 as a contract researcher for a two-year term. A computational biologist, he specializes in modeling and analyzing cellular communities interacting with their environment. His previous work includes the analysis of large metagenomic and metatranscriptomic datasets (gut microbiota and marine microbiome), the modeling of metabolic interactions within microbial communities, and the modeling of subclonal evolution in hematologic cancers through multi-omic integration. Within the unit, his research focuses on the mechanisms that shape microbial communities during intestinal colonization in infants and young children, in relation to lifestyle, diet, and the environment.

FSEV meeting 2026

Know more

Several scientists from UMR-PhAN will attend the FSEV meeting, which is held every two years. The meeting will take place in Paris from October 6 to 8. The scientific program will cover all the rapidly evolving topics related to extracellular vesicles (EVs), including bacterial EVs. Renowned international guests will deliver keynote presentations, and sessions will be dedicated to European societies focused on EVs. Anaïs Halbert, a doctoral student, and Flavie Simon, an engineer, will present their latest research on the role of EVs from bacteria that are the first to colonize the gut microbiota of newborns.

From 14 Sept. 2026 to 16 Sept. 2026 Munich, Germany

European DOHaD Conference

Know more

Several researchers and PhD students from UMR 1280 PhAN will participate in the European DOHaD Conference, to be held September 14–16, 2026, in Munich. This event brings together researchers to study how health in early life affects long-term diseases. They will present their work in the form of oral presentation or poster, which are listed below.

This study looked at how a mother's diet during pregnancy and breastfeeding may affect the health and development of her children. The research was conducted in rats. We focused on important healthy fats called omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA, along with the omega-6 fatty acid AA. These fats are important for the development of the brain and body.
