Prebiotic Selection

Prebiotic Selection is a theoretical framework in origin-of-life research that identifies and explains the chemical and physical processes favoring the accumulation and persistence of specific organic molecules under abiotic conditions, thereby distinguishing it from general prebiotic chemistry by emphasizing selective mechanisms that bias molecular evolution toward biological relevance.
