Synthetic ecology : revisiting Mexico City's lakes project
… the metropolitan region and the watershed. Synthetic Ecology is proposed for this purpose as the pluralistic and inclusive coexistence of urbanism, landscape design and engineering understood as autonomous fields.

Towards synthetic ecology : genetically programmable 4-module population control system in yeast
… and environmental sustainability. In microbial ecology, researchers have been trying to culture pure and mixed species in different conditions to elucidate the rules behind the interactions. However, the studies have been complicated by multiple variables at both the genotype and phenotype …

Parsing Technology-entanglement for Thick-things: The Complication or Complexity of Media and Technologies
… of humans and nonhumans interoperating amongst a synthetic ecology of media technologies. The third proposition is that the technology-enablement of media is a complicated or complex form of technology-entanglement. The thesis demonstrates this interpretive framework before concluding with a …

Strategies for engineering microbial communities
… (MILP) methods. The first system I studied is a synthetic microbial consortium composed of two species, Cellulomonas fimi and Yarrowia lipolytica, hypothesized to be able to jointly transform cellulose into biofuel precursors. I combined experimental data and flux balance analysis (FBA) to test …

Invasive non-native species and the management and exploitation of freshwater ecosystems
… (Dreissena polymorpha) in the novel concept of Synthetic Ecology. I investigated how zebra mussel grazing behaviour could be harnessed to maintain favourable conditions for the cultivation of commercially valuable algae species in outdoor raceways by supressing the growth of competing …
