📢 @dfg_public funds the CRC 392 Molecular Evolution in Prebiotic Environments which is founded on the research of @emergenceoflife 🎉. Here is the news release in DE 👇https://t.co/dxnbzewdf6
Congratulations to Max for successfully defending his excellent doctoral thesis about prebiotic phosphorylation reactions with prebiotically formed imidazolidine-4-thiones!
(Photoredox) Organocatalysis in the Emergence of Life: Discovery, Applications, and Molecular Evolution | Accounts of Chemical Research https://t.co/59CMeeXIAO
Congratulations to the Merck-Banyu Lectureship Award recipients Kenzo Yamatsugu and Masakazu Nambo visiting @LMU_Muenchen. Great talks about Chemical Catalysis Enabling Synthetic Intervention in Cellular Epigenome & Transformations of Organosulfones!
Congratulations to Simone for successfully defending her excellent doctoral thesis about autocatalytic transformations! Look at the hat, a little Oktoberfest!
Congratulations to Laura for successfully defending her excellent doctoral thesis about ‘In silico Investigations towards Homochirality in the Context of the Origin of Life’! https://t.co/jxSvscomrM
Special thanks for the invitation to the JCF colloquium on 'Initiating Molecular Life' at the Institute of Chemistry of the University of Rostock. Here a picture with Arne Estelmann from the JCF Rostock in front of the portrait of Walden (Walden inversion). @gdch_aktuell
Our Nature paper on the formation of Earth is out today. A thread.
The paper is the result of an interdisciplinary collaboration between cosmochemists who study meteorites in the laboratory and astrophysicists who study planet formation.

Revisiting A Long-Time Question: How stellar radiation breaks symmetry in meteoritic isovaline? By studying the response of iva to chiral light, we aimed to simulate the photolysis processes that may occur in space. @ERC_Research@NatureComms

Congratulations to the meteorite team (@LMU_Muenchen, @mpi_astro, @emergenceoflife), for closing the gap on making formaldehyde, acetaldehyde from CO2 for the next steps in the emergence of life: prebiotic photoredox organocatalysts, DNA nucleosides etc..
