應理學院生物物理研究所邀請,美國喬治華盛頓大學物理系藍贛輝教授將來我校進行學術交流,并做學術報告。
報告時間:2016年9月25日周日上午9:00—10:00
報告地點:西教五416(理學院)
報告題目:Thermodynamics in Biological Regulation: Adaptation, Amplification & Allocation
報告摘要:
Living systems are all dissipative and constantly under precise regulation. These regulation functions are generally achieved through biochemical reaction networks, which consist of many interacting proteins that operate out of equilibrium. Our knowledge of living systems is greatly progressed by understanding the operational mechanisms and functional outcomes of various regulatory networks. However, one fundamental and important aspect of biological regulation has been largely ignored: it is dissipative and cost energy. In this lecture, we attempt to use several simple examples to demonstrate the thermodynamics in biological regulation and to show how living systems trade energy for regulatory functions.
