About the Author

Emanuele Biondi earned his PhD in Florence (Italy) working on Sinorhizobium meliloti. During his postdoc at Harvard University and then MIT he worked on Caulobacter crescentus cell cycle focusing on signal transduction, discovering how cell cycle controls stalk biogenesis and proposing the first complete regulatory model of Caulobacter cell cycle. In 2010, he joined the French CNRS, and he's now working in Gif sur Yvette at the Institute for Integrative Biology of the Cell (I2BC).

The Biondi lab has been investigating how cell cycle is regulated in C. crescents and S. meliloti. Using a comparative molecular approach, the Biondi lab aims to elucidate general principles by which bacteria coordinate expression of genes and phosphorylation cascades with asymmetrical cell division and cell differentiation.
