SUMMARY:BE Seminar: Dynamical Complexity in Microbial Matter by Dr. Praneet Prakash
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Praneet Prakash\,\nPostdoctoral Researcher\, University of Cambridge\, UK. \nDate: 12th\, March\nTime: 4.00 PM\nVenue: TCS Smart X Building\, Classroom No.3 (GF -12). \nTitle: Dynamical Complexity in Microbial Matter \nAbstract: Microorganisms inhabit highly fluctuating natural environments and survive in a low-nutrient resource bath. It is now well-recognized that nutrient exchanges among microbes play a vital role in their survival. The existence of such exchanges raises fundamental questions about the dynamics of these interactions. \nIn this talk\, he will explore experimentally and theoretically a realization of such interactions in which active bacteria dynamically respond to the oxygen produced by immotile green algae through photosynthesis. Even in this simplest mixture of active-passive suspensions\, we find complex dynamics involving nutrient exchanges. \nToward the end of the talk\, he will briefly discuss our investigations on the collective behaviour of a living fluidic network\, which presents another fascinating example of dynamical complexity in microbial matter. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Praneet Prakash received PhD from the Indian Institute of Science\, Bangalore\, and is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Physical Sciences\, University of Cambridge. His research interests include Microbial Biophysics\, Biofluids\, and Complex Living Systems.
