Chris Adami’s newest paper uses Avida to test whether you can detect life just from looking at the distribution of monomers that are used to make up the “molecules of life,” and has important implications for astrobiology and the search for extraterrestrial life. Adami’s research was featured in the magazine New Scientist on Friday.
Dr. Adami is a professor at the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences, and is currently on sabbatical at BEACON headquarters at MSU.
