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

Long story, probably a boring story. But in this case, it went out to review, the comments came back, and the comments were incredibly... They were very deep comments from all the reviewers. But the nice thing was the reviewers were kind of... very critical, but not dismissive. They were like, oh, really? Explain this, explain this, explain this, explain this. Are you sure it's not Kamigolerov?

Are you sure it's not this? And we went through, I think, three rounds of review pretty quick. And the editor went, yeah, it's in.

Um, it's, uh, I think it's, uh, um, I mean, this paper for me kind of, cause this wasn't the first time we tried to publish assembly theory at the highest level, the nature communications paper, we on the mass spec on the, on the idea went through, went to nature and got rejected, went through six rounds of review and got rejected, uh,

And I just was so confused when the chemist said, this can't be possible. I do not believe you can measure complexity using mass spec. And also, by the way, molecules, complex molecules can randomly form. And we're like, but look at the data. The data says. And they said, no, no, we don't believe you. And we went and I just wouldn't give up.

I don't normally get emotional about papers, but, um, it's not about giving it up because we want to get it published because we want the glory or anything. It's just like, why don't you understand? And so, um, So what I would just try to be as rational as possible and say, yeah, you didn't like it. Tell me why. And then, sorry, let me see. Silly.
