The RNA World and Beyond - Exploring the Evolutionary Pathways Leading to the...

Delve into the fascinating world of evolutionary biology with this comprehensive lecture on the RNA world hypothesis and its implications for the origins of life. Explore the potential evolutionary pathways that led to the emergence of complex biological systems, as presented by Supratim Sengupta at the Sixth Bangalore School on Population Genetics and Evolution. Gain insights into the theoretical frameworks and experimental evidence supporting the RNA world concept, and examine how this model contributes to our understanding of early life on Earth. Discover the latest advances in molecular evolution research and consider the broader implications for fields such as astrobiology and synthetic biology. Engage with cutting-edge ideas at the intersection of chemistry, biology, and physics as you unravel the mysteries of life's evolutionary journey from simple molecules to complex organisms.
