  • Week 1 - Week 1 - Geological Time and the Nature of Science
    The week begins with a discussion of the historical and philosophical approaches that have been developed for the completion of scientific research, with the work of Professor Carl Woese evaluated as an example. The basic tools required for this type of scient...
  • Week 2 - Week 2 - The Tree of Life and Early Earth Environments
    The advent of life on Earth came about as a result of a remarkable confluence of physical, chemical, and biological processes, all of which were intrinsically linked to rapidly changing early Earth environments. Within this context, cutting-edge approaches in ...
  • Week 3 - Week 3 - Fossilization and Precambrian Life-Earth Interaction
