  2. Conference: Origin of Life Gordon Conference


    When January 10, 2010 (Sun) ~ January 15, 2010 (Fri)
    Where Hotel Galvez, Galveston, Texas, USA

    The origin and early development of life whether specifically on Earth, or possibly elsewhere in the universe, remains one of the great unsolved scientific problems. The 2010 Gordon Conference on the Origin of Life will present highly interdisciplinary cutting-edge research that seeks to improve our understanding of origins while allowing increasingly realistic scenarios for major events in life’s history. This year’s conference will again underscore the rich diversity of perspectives while addressing a variety of key questions. Does life uniquely...
