Microbial community stability dynamics to environmental triggers

该项目旨在通过定义响应环境影响（如营养胁迫，病原体入侵和抗生素/化学品）的稳定性来提高我们对复杂微生物群落结构/功能动态的认识。使用创新的微生物财团建模，以确定处于稳态破坏风险的社区，我们将开发和测试先发制人的微生物操作策略，以恢复社区稳定性。该项目将对人类和动物产生重大的全球影响和经济/健康效益。

This project aims to advance our knowledge of the structural/functional dynamics of complex microbial communities by defining stability in response to environmental influences such as nutrient stress, pathogen invasion and antibiotics/chemicals. Using innovative microbial consortia modelling, to identify communities at risk of homeostatic disruption, we will develop and test pre-emptive microbial manipulation strategies for restoring community stability. This project will yield significant global impact and economic/health benefit for humans and animals.
