Joe Rogan Experience 2184 👽 Sara Walker | Artificial Life & Life on Other Worlds

Professor Sara Walker is an astrobiologist and theoretical physicist whose research interests include the origins of life, artificial life, and extraterrestrial detection. Since joining ASU in 2013 she has built a highly interdisciplinary research program to tackle the origin of life problem from all sides. She has mentored dozens of early career scientists and leads one of the largest theory groups in origins of life and astrobiology internationally. Her team's major contributions are in theoretical advances in the field of astrobiology, developing new approaches to the problem of understanding universal features of life that might allow a general theory for solving the matter to life transition, detecting alien life and designing synthetic life. She is PI of a NASA Indisciplinary Consortia for Astrobiology Research (iCAR) project focused on "Planetary Systems Biochemistry" which is providing a new set of rigorous, agnostic tools for NASA and other agencies to identify signs of life. She is playing a key role in developing statistical frameworks for life detection and new approaches to the origins of life.
