Billions of years ago, life emerged on Earth. Which external circumstances made this possible and what “ingredients” were necessary for it, however, remain important open questions in science. Researchers in the “ORIGINS” Cluster of Excellence at TUM and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München are working with several partners in order to find answers. In the latest podcast in the “Exzellent erklärt" series, two experts from the cluster explain their research into better understanding the beginnings of life.

Bacteria and bacteria-like unicellular organisms were the first forms of life that evolved on our planet.
