Evolutionary biology High‑importance

	Evolutionary biology portal This article is part of WikiProject Evolutionary biology, an attempt at building a useful set of articles on evolutionary biology and its associated subfields such as population genetics, quantitative genetics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, and evolutionary developmental biology. It is distinct from the WikiProject Tree of Life in that it attempts to cover patterns, process and theory rather than systematics and taxonomy. If you would like to participate, there are some suggestions on this page (see also Wikipedia:Contributing FAQ for more information) or visit WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biologyWikipedia:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyTemplate:WikiProject Evolutionary biologyEvolutionary biology articles

Loads of prebiotic molecules found in Milky Way?

FWIW - (For being aware only of newly published relevant studies - not necessarily to incorporate into the main article) - On 8 July 2022, astronomers reported the discovery of massive amounts of prebiotic molecules, including for RNA, in the galactic center of the Milky Way Galaxy.^[1]^[2] - Stay Safe and Healthy !! - Drbogdan (talk) 13:09, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Should the “RNA in Therapeutics” section be moved?

This section seems to have little to do with the RNA World hypothesis specifically and would therefore be a better fit for the general RNA article instead of this one. But I’m no biologist, so I might be misunderstanding the content. 174.50.77.178 (talk) 11:35, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. It will be done. Chhandama (talk) 10:44, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
