Microbial Community Assembly and Competition in Boom-and-Bust Environments - Lecture 3

Explore a lecture from the ICTP-ICTS Winter School on Quantitative Systems Biology that delves into microbial community dynamics in fluctuating environments. Learn about the complex interactions and competition patterns within microbial communities during boom-and-bust cycles, presented by Sergei Maslov. Gain insights into theoretical ecology, complex systems, and the mathematical modeling of ecosystem stability and resilience. Part of a comprehensive winter school program that combines theoretical frameworks with practical applications in understanding biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics. Examine cutting-edge methodologies used to analyze how microbial communities assemble and compete under varying environmental conditions, contributing to broader understanding of ecosystem stability and tipping points. The lecture, delivered in English, is designed for scientists and students worldwide, with particular emphasis on participants from developing countries.
