The origins of life was exclusively a question in chemistry. However, now we are getting insights from biology. How are these ideas being tested in the lab?

A lecture by Nick Lane, Professor of Evolutionary Biochemistry 20 May 2019

The origin of life is one of the biggest questions in science, but until recently it was, experimentally, a question in chemistry. Now, gene sequences and a better understanding of cell growth under extreme conditions are giving insights from biology. These point to hydro-thermal vent environments as ‘incubators’ that could drive growth in a similar way to cells at the origin of life.

Professor Lane will discuss how these ideas are being tested in the lab.
