The dawn of organic chemistry

With :

Cecilia Ceccarelli
(Research Fellow UGA IPAG)

Fanny Vazart
(Postdoctoral researcher UGA)

Why is there life on Earth? Big question, right? Terrestrial life is based on relatively small molecules containing carbon atoms, or, in other words, on organic chemistry. However, our planet is made of rocks and metals where inorganic chemistry rules! In our talk, we will tell the story of how organic molecules are formed in space, and how they may have rained on the young Earth and, who knows, help fertilizing our planet with seeds of life!
