Building virtual cyanobacteria: moving beyond the genomics era

构建虚拟蓝藻：超越基因组学时代。该项目旨在通过开发单细胞和全球生态系统的计算模型来建立对复杂生物系统的新理解。该项目将专注于全球重要的光合细菌，这些细菌是整个海洋食物网的基础。该项目旨在描述澳大利亚海洋栖息地中光合细菌的多样性和丰富性，并揭示它们适应不同环境的遗传基础。这些数据将与生化和生理学研究相结合，以创建细胞和全球生态系统规模的量化模型。该项目旨在开发新的生物监测技术，与这些模型相结合，将能够评估澳大利亚海洋生态系统的健康状况。

Building virtual cyanobacteria: moving beyond the genomics era. This project aims to establish a new understanding of complex biological systems through the development of computational models of single cells and global ecosystems. The project will focus on globally important photosynthetic bacteria that underlie the entire marine food web. This project aims to characterise the diversity and abundance of photosynthetic bacteria across Australia's marine habitats and unravel the genetic basis for their adaptation to different environments. This data will be integrated with biochemical and physiological studies to create quantitative models at the cellular and global ecosystem scales. This project aims to develop new biomonitoring technologies, which combined with these models, will enable assessment of the health of Australia's marine ecosystems.
