In this presentation, we examine why origin-of-life research continues to fall short of explaining the true complexity of living cells. From asymmetric lipid membranes and ion channels to carbohydrate-based information systems and non-covalent molecular interactions, real cells depend on layers of organization no protocell experiment has ever reproduced.

We explore why simplified laboratory models fail to resemble actual cells, why biological information extends far beyond DNA, and why assembling life’s chemistry—even with unlimited resources—remains beyond current science. The talk raises fundamental questions about information, molecular organization, and whether unguided processes can plausibly account for life’s origin.
