Did Life Evolve from Chemicals? Talk by Jon Perry - Feb 2018

On Darwin Day 2018 I gave a talk at the College of Charleston about the chemical origin of life. It was fun! Check it out! Further Reading: Paper on RNA evolution experiments (mentioned in my talk): https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/4277... This is Ram's Paper about the molecule he found that might make RNA more stable. I was actually wrong, it doesn't make RNA more stable but it does allow backbone binding to form chains. The stability problem is still not solved, so far as I am aware: https://www.nature.com/articles/nchem... In this video I show the RNA world Animation from my Stated Clearly Channel, and I show the Miller Urey animation from my Stated Clearly Channel. Go subscribe to me over there if you haven't already! The technical name for the Darwinian process that drug companies use to improve molecules is "high throughput screening". It's a system set up for slightly modifying a molecule thousands of times, and testing each modification for function. Once they find a good one, they use it as the foundation for the next round of modifications and tests. In other words, descent with modification, acted upon by selection.
