In this paper, we discuss how prebiotic geo-electrochemical systems can be modeled as a fuel cell and how laboratory simulations of the origin of life in general can benefit from this systems-led approach. As a specific example, the components of wha... Read More about The fuel cell model of abiogenesis: A new approach to origin-of-life simulations.
