What is Life?

By and with Gianluca Lattanzi (Department of Physics) and with Maura Pettorruso

Drama

What is life? This is the title of a series of lectures given by the famous physicist Erwin Schrödinger, who took refuge in Ireland during the Second World War. Surrounded by reports of death, Schrödinger questioned the processes that allow life to proliferate on our planet. The principles of physics and chemistry must account for this. But how? Why is it so? Does it have to be so? How can information about who we are and how we function pass from one organism to another? However, if we can have reasonable hopes of being able to explain what life is, we are a long way from answering another question: why?
