Great to see we're on the right track with two of our key initiatives all but explicitly mentioned: 1) TUCCA-C (our cell ag industry consortium modeled after the IUCRC program 2) Our USDA-established National Institute for Cellular Agriculture

Tried using #midjourneyAi with cultured meat prompts. The salmon looks a bit dystopian 🐟

The FDA recently approved the first commercial meat made from animal cell cultures. Can it happen at a large scale?

Even AI calls it lab-grown meat now. How do we change this, @elliotswartz ?

I wanted to love this movie. But it was a real, physical pain to watch. No enjoyment, no entertainment value whatsoever.

Ένα μεγάλο μπράβο στην ομάδα των @fnikiforos, @PanosKostop και Πάνου Βλαχογιάννη για τη δημιουργία ενός οργανισμού που στοχεύει στην ενημέρωση του Ελληνικού κοινού σχετικά με την —άκρως σημαντική για το μέλλον της ανθρωπότητας— κυτταρική αγροκαλλιέργεια. https://t.co/a88ozmsgP3

Excited to see that James Webb telescope #JWST was successfully launched today! And I can't help but think that my Cell Ag Secret Santa nailed it with the gift choice :) Thanks for organizing, @AnitaBroellochs and @alexshirazi, looking forward to the next one!

Also, describing FBS use in the growth medium as a problem is very much outdated at this point.

Cool to see the Economist making a video explaining cultured meat, yet I have mixed feelings about them calling it lab-grown. But maybe using that term widely could bring mainstream acceptance in a "brute force" kind of way?

Another session of our little "European Alternative Protein Journal Club", with @natalierrubio presenting her research, and the rest of us geeking out and bombarding her with questions. Entomoculture FTW!

(3/3) Well, @ishadatar 's new TED talk does a great job tackling both, and then outlines the bold, paradigm-shifting vision that #cellag promises, all in just about 10min. Definitely an idea worth spreading! https://t.co/U00kEVkOEC
