The Oceans at MIT website ran an article by Genevieve Wanucha about the research of CEE Professor Roman Stocker‘s environmental microfluidics lab, which uses small devices to create mini-habitats for ocean microbes. “It’s the same as studying any other complex ecosystem, for example a jungle,” says Stocker. “Ultimately, if you want to understand the ecosystem on the large scale, you have to go down to the level of the single organism: how it finds food, how it competes, how it is affected by its environment. The challenge in our case is that the single organism is invisibly small.” Read the story.
