Synthetic soil crusts against green-desert transitions: a spatial model [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2020 Semiarid ecosystems are threatened by global warming due to longer dehydration times and increasing soil degradation. Mounting evidence indicates that, given the current trends, drylands are likely to expand and possibly experience catastrophic shifts ...

Ecological Firewalls for Synthetic Biology
iScience, 2022 While rapidly becoming a main thread in the development of new therapies, the rise of synthetic biology is also tied to concerns about the potential impact on ecosystems. That is particularly relevant in the of deployment in natural habitats, including the human microbiome. These concerns have boosted the analysis of diverse strategies of containment,

Engineering ecosystems and synthetic ecologies [PDF]
Molecular BioSystems, 2012 Abstract Microbial ecosystems play an important role in nature. Engineering these systems for industrial, medical, or biotechnological purposes are important pursuits for synthetic biologists and biological engineers moving forward. Here we provide a review of recent progress in engineering natural and synthetic microbial ecosystems ...
