This seminar is part of the EAI on-line seminars
Modern life is characterized by a complex DNA/protein machinery encapsulated in cellular systems.
The seminar will discuss how feedstock molecules such as hydrogen cyanide and formaldehyde can be produced
under early Earth conditions or in planet-forming environments. These molecules may then lead to RNA structures, amino acids and lipid precursors.
The European Astrobiology Institute (EAI) is hosted by The European Science Foundation
