Origins Of Life: Transition From Geochemistry To Biogeochemistry, December 2016, Vol. 12, No. 6
$20.00
How life originated is one of the most important, and longstanding, questions that humans have attempted to answer, as reflected in our mythologies, religions, philosophy, and science. Furthermore, our understanding of the emergence of life on Earth could potentially contribute to the search for life in other parts of the Solar System and the rest of the Universe.
Origins Of Life: Transition From Geochemistry To Biogeochemistry
December 2016, Vol. 12, No. 6
How life originated is one of the most important, and longstanding, questions that humans have attempted to answer, as reflected in our mythologies, religions, philosophy, and science. Furthermore, our understanding of the emergence of life on Earth could potentially contribute to the search for life in other parts of the Solar System and the rest of the Universe. The objective of our thematic issue is to highlight the potential role of minerals and the critical importance of using relevant conditions, plausible on early Earth, for designing experiments to model the emergence and early evolution of life. We believe that this approach is essential to bridging the gap in the field between biochemists/organic chemists, on the one hand, and geochemists/mineralogists, on the other.

Medical Mineralogy And Geochemistry, December 2007, Vol. 3, No. 6
$20.00Medical mineralogy and geochemistry is an emergent, highly interdisciplinary field concerned with both normal and pathological interactions between minerals or amorphous inorganic solids and biomolecules or cells within the human body, and the transport and fate of prions and protein toxins in the soil environment. Prior research has, appropriately, focused on the complex genetic and molecular biological aspects, but there is a growing recognition of the vital need for understanding the surface and bulk properties and reactivities, especially at the challenging nanoscale characteristic of biomacromolecules and biominerals.
