Abstract
Our planet harbours trillions of microbial species. Most live in multi-species communities that play essential roles in practically all ecosystems, ranging from ocean to the gut. Metagenomics is now providing unprecedented insights into the diversity of these communities. The next challenge is to decipher the interactions underlying the dynamics and function of these communities. I will introduce principles and tools of genome-scale metabolic modelling, and illustrate how these can be applied at meta-genome scale to elucidate cooperative and competitive interactions that shape microbial communities.
