Parasites at the origin of life
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 1983This paper is concerned with parasitic virus-like particles and their hosts. It is proposed that parasitism must have occurred at an early stage of evolution, soon after the first self-reproducing systems had formed. When chemical building blocks for self-reproducing systems became scarce, current theories envision that some self-reproducing systems ...

The origin of life at the origin of ageing?
Ageing Research Reviews, 2017At first glance, the ageing of unicellular organisms would appear to be different from the ageing of complex, multicellular organisms. In an attempt to describe the nature of ageing in diverse organisms, the intimate links between the origins of life and ageing are examined.

Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 1960 The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1959
A formal solution of the main problems concerning the origination of life is attempted, adopting as fundamental axiom the plausible assumption that it was a spontaneous, natural sequence of "most probable" events. Survival by natural selection is a particular example of a most probable event, and therefore operated at all stages of the origination ...

It is beyond denying that life has become the focal point of presentday philosophical investigation. And the question of life’s origins, in particular, once dismissed by philosophers as meaningless, is becoming the focal point of interest for science, one hiding a cluster of issues around which all scientific investigation turns, and on which they ...
