However, this transition is not the origin of Darwinian evolution.
He is currently working on a theory known as "pre-life," a formal approach to the origin of evolution.
The Earth-Life Science Institute's research mission is to elucidate how Earth formed and how its early environment allowed for the origin of life and its subsequent evolution.
The recipe is familiar to anyone who has studied biology because it underpins the very chemistry of the origin of life and its subsequent evolution.
The origin of human handedness and its evolution in primates is presently under debate.
"It's an important paper because it provides the first real test for the role of relatedness in the origin of eusociality and its actual evolution," says biologist Bernard Crespi of Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada.
A naturalistic grounding for the origin of life and its subsequent evolution, what Darwin called the Law of the Conditions of Existence, can be found in the natural law of history, the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Maynard Smith and Szathmary (1995) realized that solving the fundamental mystery of the nature of the organism lay in understanding the link between the origin of life and its subsequent evolution.
The mural, "Entangled Bank," borrows its title from Darwin's "On the Origin of Species" and uses evolution as its theme, with panels that move chronologically from lava formation to human-made tools embedded in sun rays.
