DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Martin Ackermann\nhosted by Magdalena Steinrück\nAbst
 ract: Many microorganisms live in communities that consist of different ge
 notypes that interact with each other. These interactions can lead to emer
 gent properties at the community level  that is\, provide the community wi
 th functionality that goes beyond what individual members have in isolatio
 n. These community-level activities and functions are shaped by metabolic 
 interactions between the organisms that constitute the community. Interact
 ions are expected to mainly occur between microbes that are close to space
 . As a consequence\, the nature and strength of the interactions that will
  occur will depend on the spatial arrangement of different types of microo
 rganisms. In turn\, the spatial arrangement is expected to be shaped by me
 tabolic interactions\, which determine regions where a given organism grow
 s well. Our goal here is to better understand this interplay between the s
 patial arrangement of different types of microbes and the interactions tha
 t arise between them. Working with a synthetic consortium of different E. 
 coli strains with well-defined metabolic interactions\, we can quantify th
 e spatial range over which interactions occur and understand the consequen
 ces for the spatial arrangement and growth of the community. We then test 
 these principles in more natural experimental systems. The goal of this wo
 rk is to contribute to identifying general principles that govern how diff
 erent types of organisms organize in space\, and how this spatial self- or
 ganization shapes the activities and functions of the community.
