FIRST STEP. “How do you get the first system to replicate? There’s a process called self-assembly where you can aggregate materials and suddenly get new properties. For instance, if you have a lipid molecule in water, if you allow many, many lipid molecules to swim around in water, then they will form a membrane. Once you have a membrane, suddenly you can design an outside and an inside. You’ll be able to define permeability through the membrane.”
