Search for Life in the Universe

Starting in 2021, The Kavli Foundation has provided support for Scialog: Signatures of Life in the Universe. the goal of this Scialog series is to bring together scientists from multiple disciplines to collaborate on new and innovative projects to advance the understanding of exoplanet habitability, the origins of life, and its signatures in the universe.

The Kavli-Laukien Postdoctoral Fellowship Program will support scholars in the Harvard Origins of Life Initiative conducting multi-disciplinary research aimed at revealing if life is abundant in the universe by striving to understand how initial conditions on planets dictate the origins of life and its subsequent evolution.
