MINERAL ROOTS. “One fundamental property we focused on is the reliance of these enzymes on iron-sulfur or metal coenzymes, reflecting the notion that modern biochemistry emerged from mineral geochemistry and that metal-based cofactors in modern day enzymes represent a living relic of this contingency.” https://lnkd.in/dcwZe7b View in LinkedIn

POWERFUL TOOL. “Overall, IMBHs are a fundamental key to understanding the formation, growth, and evolution of SMBHs and of the overall black hole population in the universe. LISA’s ability to detect IMBH mergers across most of cosmic time, combined with the prowess of EM observations, will be sure to answer crucial questions as well as pose new ones.” (IMBHs = intermediate mass black holes; SMBH = supermassive black holes; LISA = The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna; EM = electromagnetic). https://lnkd.in/dYX7TQV View in LinkedIn
