The vital question: The story of life + Q&A (Nick Lane & Matthew Cobb)

How was the code of DNA cracked? How did it confirm the theory of evolution? And why did life evolve the way it did? To celebrate their ground-breaking new books, Matthew Cobb and Nick Lane will come together to unravel the tangled story of DNA and answer the vital question: why are we as we are, and why are we here at all? This lecture exists out of 2 parts on YouTube (‘Why is life the way it is’ + ‘The Race to Crack the Genetic Code’).
