Na podlagi dosedanjih raziskav lahko trdimo, da z lokalnim delovanjem na mikrometrskih razdaljah tvorijo strukture, ki predstavljajo osnovne enote, preko interakcij med temi enotami pa potem delujejo na ekosistemski ravni. Prostorska ureditev mikrobnih enot je izredno pomembna za razumevanje delovanja celotne biosfere. S trenutnimi pristopi je te enote mogoče le opazovati, ampak če bi jih lahko poustvarili, bi imeli v rokah izredno močno orodje, ne samo za razumevanje delovanja ekosistemov, pač pa tudi za njihov inženiring in upravljanje. V predavanju bom opisal metode za prostorsko upravljanje z mikrobi, ki smo jih razvili tekom naših raziskav in ki nam omogočijo preseči okvire trenutnega razumevanja delovanja mikrobnih združb.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><b>O predavatelju</b>: Aleš Lapanje je znanstveni svetnik na Institutu »Jožef Stefan« in izredni profesor na Mednarodni podiplomski šoli Jožefa Stefana v Ljubljani.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Napovednik predavanja in posnetke preteklih predavanj najdete na <b>novi spletni strani »Kolokvijev na IJS«</b> </span><a href="https://kolokviji.ijs.si/"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>https://kolokviji.ijs.si/</span></a><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>, posnetke pa tudi posebej na </span><a href="https://video.arnes.si/?q=Kolokviji_IJS"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>https://video.arnes.si/?q=Kolokviji_IJS</span></a><span style='font-size:10.0pt'> (zadnje tri sezone) in </span><a href="http://videolectures.net/kolokviji_ijs"><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>http://videolectures.net/kolokviji_ijs</span></a><span style='font-size:10.0pt'> (starejši).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'>______________<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal'>We invite you to the 15th lecture in the framework of »JSI Colloquia« in the academic year 2023/24, which will take place on <b>Wednesday, June 19, 2024, at 1:00 PM</b> in the main lecture hall of Jožef Stefan Institute, Jamova cesta 39 in Ljubljana.

Based on current research, we can assert that by acting locally at micrometer distances, they form structures that represent the basic units, and through interactions among these units, they then operate at the ecosystem level. The spatial arrangement of microbial units is extremely important for understanding how the entire biosphere functions. By current approaches, t</span><span style='color:black'>hese</span><span style='color:black'> </span><span style='color:black'>units can only be </span><span style='color:black'>monitored.
