SUMMARY:Elucidating inter-species interactions in microbial communities us
 ing metabolic models - Kiran R. Patil (MRC Toxicology Unit\, University of
  Cambridge)

DESCRIPTION: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 c
 hallenge is to decipher the interactions underlying the dynamics and funct
 ion of these communities. I will introduce principles and tools of genome-
 scale metabolic modelling\, and illustrate how these can be applied at met
 a-genome scale to elucidate cooperative and competitive interactions that 
 shape microbial communities.
