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.</span><span lang=SL><o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><b><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt;font-weight:bold'>O predavatelju</span></font></b><span lang=SL>: </span><span lang=SL>Aleš Lapanje je znanstveni svetnik na Institutu »Jožef Stefan« in izredni profesor na Mednarodni podiplomski šoli Jožefa Stefana v Ljubljani.</span><span lang=SL><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:10.0pt'>Napovednik predavanja in posnetke preteklih predavanj najdete na <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>novi spletni strani »Kolokvijev na IJS«</span></b> </span></font><span lang=SL><a href="https://kolokviji.ijs.si/"><font size=2><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>https://kolokviji.ijs.si/</span></font></a></span><font size=2><span lang=SL style='font-size:10.0pt'>, posnetke pa tudi posebej na </span></font><span lang=SL><a href="https://video.arnes.si/?q=Kolokviji_IJS"><font size=2><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>https://video.arnes.si/?q=Kolokviji_IJS</span></font></a></span><font size=2><span lang=SL style='font-size:10.0pt'> (zadnje tri sezone) in </span></font><span lang=SL><a href="http://videolectures.net/kolokviji_ijs"><font size=2><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>http://videolectures.net/kolokviji_ijs</span></font></a></span><font size=2><span lang=SL style='font-size:10.0pt'> (starejši).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'>______________<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><font size=2 face=Calibri><span lang=SL style='font-size:11.0pt'>We invite you to the 15th lecture in the framework of »JSI Colloquia« in the academic year 2023/24, which will take place <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>TODAY, June 19, 2024, at 1:00 PM</span></b> in the main lecture hall of Jožef Stefan Institute, Jamova cesta 39 in Ljubljana.
