SUMMARY:Conférence du Professeur Tom Fyles (Victoria)
DESCRIPTION:Titre :  Dissipative Assembly of Membrane Transport Systems.La
  conférence sera prononcée par le professeur Tom Fyles du Département d
 e chimie de l'University of Victoria. Elle sera donnée en anglais. Résu
 mé : Living creatures - people\, plants\, bacteria - have two key charact
 eristics: we continually consume energy\, and we burn that energy to maint
 ain our functions via the organized structures of our cells. Coupling ener
 gy flow to maintain structure\, described as dissipative assembly\, allows
  our cells to perform myriad functions under conditions remote from equili
 brium. Inspired by nature\, supramolecular chemists have had considerable 
 success in creating self-assembled and functional structures near equilibr
 ium. This seminar will discuss our recent efforts to create transport syst
 ems that are away from equilibrium and therefore are dissipative\; they co
 nsume energy\, self-assemble to an ion-transporting structure\, cease to f
 unction when the energy input is consumed\, and revive when fed.  Informa
