Scientists will talk about the origin of life and the search for it
The 7th international conference “Large Igneous Provinces through Earth History” has opened at TSU. Its participants (almost 160 scientists from Russia and 12 other countries) will discuss topics related to the formation of the supercontinent, climate change, the formation of oil and gas fields, and the development of the terrestrial planets.
Experts from the USA, Canada, Australia, and other countries will present, and some of the lectures will be open. For example, Timothy Lyons, Honored Professor of Biogeochemistry at the University of California, Riverside, who leads a team at the Alternative Earth Institute at the NASA Institute of Astrobiology, will give an open lecture devoted to the study of the deep past of the Earth and how the data obtained assist the search for alien life.
