How can lifeless molecules come together to form a living cell?
'
This EVOLF project is set to run for another ten years and aims to find out
how many more lifeless modules can come together and create living cells.

This seems somewhat relevant to the article:

The meteorite struck Earth when it was still in its early years, a water
world with only a few continents sticking out of the sea.
In their fieldwork, Drabon said, they were looking for spherule
particles or tiny fragments of rock left behind by the impact of the
meteorite.
The team collected 220 pounds of rock and took them back to the lab for
analysis.
The giant meteorite caused a tsunami to sweep across the planet, the
scientists found. Heat from the impact caused the topmost layer of the
ocean to boil off, while also heating the atmosphere.
They found rock evidence showing that the tsunami churned up nutrients
such as iron and phosphorus.
Additionally, there was partial ocean evaporation, and darkness that
likely harmed shallow-water photosynthetic microbes in the short term.
Life in the deeper oceans was less affected, the scientists found.
Jon Wade, associate professor of planetary materials at Oxford
University in England, said the distribution of this iron-rich water is
the crucial element to how life began.
Iron is the most abundant element by mass in the Earth, but most of it
is locked up in the Earth’s core, 1,800 miles beneath our feet, Wade said.
Despite this, life forms rely on iron for survival. Only two life forms
— lactobacilli, found in yogurt, and Borrelia burgdorferi, which is
responsible for Lyme disease — are currently not dependent on iron.
As a result, there was a temporary boom of microorganisms that relied on
iron.
The study has drawn global media coverage, something the team said they
were not anticipating.
“There has been a surprising amount of interest in the paper; I suppose
we have the dinosaurs to thank for that,” Knoll said.
“I get very excited about my research and I know that the results are
important to the scientific community,” Drabon said. “Seeing that the
public is interested as well has been a very welcome surprise.”
