Functional universality in slow-growing microbial communities arises from thermodynamic constraints
Ashish B. George, Tong Wang, Sergei Maslov
The dynamics of microbial communities is incredibly complex, determined by competition for metabolic substrates and cross-feeding of byproducts. Species in the community grow by ha…
Stochastic social behavior coupled to COVID-19 dynamics leads to waves, plateaus and an endemic state
Alexei V. Tkachenko, Sergei Maslov, Tong Wang +3
It is well recognized that population heterogeneity plays an important role in the spread of epidemics. While individual variations in social activity are often assumed to be persi…
Modeling microbial cross-feeding at intermediate scale portrays community dynamics and species coexistence
Chen Liao, Tong Wang, Sergei Maslov +1
Social interaction between microbes can be described at many levels of details, ranging from the biochemistry of cell-cell interactions to the ecological dynamics of populations. C…
Evidence for a multi-level trophic organization of the human gut microbiome
Tong Wang, Akshit Goyal, Veronika Dubinkina +1
The human gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem, in which hundreds of microbial species and metabolites coexist, in part due to an extensive network of cross-feeding interactions.…
