Last week, we had an incredible time at the BITS 2025 – Bioinformatics Italian Society Conference in Naples: three days full of exciting events, inspiring talks, and cutting-edge research! 🎉🎤✨
First and foremost, we were excited to show the community what we’ve been working on!
🔹 Giacomo Baruzzo held an oral presentation: “Sustainable computation on large, sparse omics matrices with quickSparseM.” 💻🌿 Learn more about how quickSparseM is advancing efficient omics data analysis ➡️ https://doi.org/10.1109/PDP66500.2025.00045
🔹 Giulia Cesaro presented a poster on her latest project, developed in collaboration with RWTH Aachen University, “Intracellular signaling pathway reconstruction at single-cell resolution.” 🧬🔬
But that’s not all!
Members of our group also contributed to organizing two exciting events at BITS 2025:
🧠 The First International BioHackathon of the Bioinformatics Italian Society
👥 The Young Symposium session
The goal was to provide early-career scientists with opportunities to develop critical research skills, engage in interdisciplinary teamwork, and build a supportive scientific network. 🧬📘
