Congratulations to ENIGMA’s David Stahl on this well-deserved and prestigious award!
The ultimate goal of the ENIGMA SFA research is to generate a quantitative understanding of phenomena across these multiple scales so that scientists can predict and rationally alter the behavioral responses of microbes and their communities to obtain desired environmental goals. ENIGMA research is divided into four components.
David’s work on evolutionary and ecological origins of community assembly, stability, and efficiency informed by model microbial mutualism in co-cultures anchors many of our ongoing ENIGMA projects.
