Over the past decade, we have sought to use chemistry to infer a geochemical scenario which could have acted as the cradle for life. Boundaries imposed by geology can then be used to refine and guide the prebiotic chemistry. Cycling between geochemistry and prebiotic chemistry in this way should aid the improvement and plausibility of reaction pathways and the discovery of new reactions and reagents, in effect, acting as a type of triangulation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaker:<\/strong> Dr. Dougal Ritso, MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Host:<\/strong> Yasuhito Sekine, ELSI.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> Thu. 9 May 16:00-17:00 JST<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue:<\/strong> Mishima Hall, ELSI<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8284,"template":"","news_events_cat":[6],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_events\/8285"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news_events"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8285"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"news_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elsi.jp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_events_cat?post=8285"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
