#404 โ€“ Lee Cronin: Controversial Nature Paper on Evolution of Life and Universe

So what you were able to do is like the assembly index of, we found high assembly index molecules originating from the beer sample and the E. coli sample. So I mean, I didn't know which one was higher. We wouldn't really do any detail there because now we are doing that because one of the things we've done, it's a secret, but I can tell you. I think it's a secret.

Well, is that we've just mapped the tree of life using assembly theory, because everyone said that you can't do it in biology. And what we're able to do is, so I think there's three ways, well, two ways of doing tree of life, well, three ways, actually.

So the tree of life is basically tracing back the history of life on Earth, all the different species going back, who evolved from what, and it all goes all the way back to the first kind of life forms, and they branch off. And you have plant kingdom, the animal kingdom, the fungi kingdom, and different branches all the way up.

And the way this was classically done, and I'm no evolutionary biologist. Evolution biologists tell me every day, at least 10 times. I want to be one, though. I kind of like biology. It's kind of cool. Yeah, it's very cool. But basically, what Darwin and Mendeleev and all these people do is just they draw pictures, right? And they taxa.
