Most microbes don't live in shaking flasks; spatial structure shapes how microbes interact and evolve at every scale, as we discuss in our recent review @jeroenmeijer.bsky.social @simonvanvliet.bsky.social @bedutilh.bsky.social @bramvandijk.bsky.social and others academic.oup.com/femsre/artic... 🧵👇
In case you missed it: our review titled "Spatial structure: shaping the ecology and evolution of microbial communities" is out! 🚨 Let me hit you with some highlights on why spatial structure matters. (and why you should care!) Sharing is appreciated 🙏 🧵👇 doi.org/10.1093/fems...
5/5 New tools help to close this gap. Individual-based models, microfluidics, hydrogels, and spatial omics allow insights into spatially structured communities. Spatial complexity is not noise; it is a signal! Embracing it is how we will learn the rules that govern microbial life.🔬

Spatial structure: shaping the ecology and evolution of microbial communities
3mo
4/5 Microscale interactions scale up to shape global biogeochemical cycles. Carbon flux, nutrient cycling, and viral lysis all depend on local spatial structure that many models simply average away. Connecting micro to macro is one of the biggest open challenges in the field!
Spatial structure naturally emerges in microbial communities, shaping growth, interactions, and evolution, and revealing how microscale processes scale up
