Breaking the mold of the traditional field expedition: Biology Meets Subduction

The sampling expedition Biology Meets Subduction: A Collaborative and Multidisciplinary Deep Carbon Field Initiative was designed to develop novel connections between microbiology, volcanic systems, and the cycling of living and dead (biotic and abiotic) carbon as Earth’s plates move and subduct past each other. With the fieldwork complete, the team, led by DCO early career scientists has started to publish their findings. Join Peter Barry (University of Oxford, UK), Karen Lloyd (University of Tennessee Knoxville, USA), and Donato Giovannelli (CNR-IRBIM, Italy and Rutgers University, USA) as they discuss their fieldwork in Costa Rica and Panama and share the value added and problems created by conducting a multidisciplinary scientific investigation in the field.

I have questions about the emergence of life for the first time four billion years ago
Life comes because of information in protein and DNA
This information gives mind and consciousness in microbes
The question is, how did that information form?
What are the stages of the emergence of information in protein and DNA?
Please do create living organisms of amino acids
We wish you to use intelligent cameras to photograph amino acid molecules
I want a camera that reveals the stages of the appearance of DNA in the protein as well

We want to know how that information was formed in the living cell
