DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2017.12.024
Abstract: Many readers of this journal have been schooled in both Darwinian evolution and Skinnerian psychology, which have in common the vision of powerful control of their subjects by their sequalae. Individuals of species that generate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-16501-4
Abstract: The fabrication of nanomaterials from the top-down gives precise structures but it is costly, whereas bottom-up assembly methods are found by trial and error. Nature evolves materials discovery by refining and transmitting the blueprints using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1089/ast.2021.0161
Abstract: According to the Lipid World hypothesis, life on Earth originated with the emergence of amphiphilic assemblies in the form of lipid micelles and vesicles (liposomes). However, the mechanism of appearance of the information molecules (ribozymes/RNA)… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life11040308
Abstract: Understanding the emergence of life from (primitive) abiotic components has arguably been one of the deepest and yet one of the most elusive scientific questions. Notwithstanding the lack of a clear definition for a living… read more here.
