ESCs & iPSCs...Same-Same But Different

@DrFarazHarsini luv it

Hunters shocked when I asked about hunting DOGS! https://t.co/GjaeNGH90U via @YouTube

[Lewis Bollard @Lewis_Bollard]

We often forget how little most people know about the cruelty on factory farms. This new investigation recorded standard pig industry practices, yet the most upvoted comments show shock and anger. (Even from "RightWingTed"!)

This is why the meat industry hates undercover investigations so much. Their business model relies on keeping consumers in the dark.

@elliotswartz @GoodFoodInst ty @elliotswartz

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

can pluripotent stem cells proliferate indefinitely? If so, can they be referred to as immortalized cells?

@GoodFoodInst

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

@deucejaxon @GoodFoodInst i am immortal

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

in the context of cultivated meat cell lines is an adult stem cell much different to a progenitor cell? Can somebody explain difference to me?

@GoodFoodInst @elliotswartz

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

@foodjungle2023 @biotecheshan i think so. i guess it kind of depends on why they dont eat meat in the first place? I think same applies for vegans too

What do you think Top G?

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

@foodjungle2023 naaa. outbound all day long in my opinion

[Joe Fassler @joefassler]

A young, hungry industry raked in billions to grow slaughter-free meat in giant tanks.

Could it fix our broken diets, repair a damaged planet, save us from ourselves?

I wrestled with that question for a year. For @nytopinion, here's what I learned.

“History is positively littered with examples of world-changing innovations being dismissed by the sharpest, most-credentialed observers as pointless, dangerous, funny, or all three, before those same innovations went on to prove their critics wrong.” https://t.co/HSyfsVsOkZ

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

most of the detractors of the alt protein movement look like they are around 50+ yrs old. That problem should sort itself out in the next 20yrs or so.

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

understanding cell culture is a walk in the park 🚶‍♂️🌳

@PaulHShapiro 💯

[JP Lal @JPLal10]

In 2020 Marina Schmidt asked @PaulHShapiro to predict the key milestones in cultivated meat. (~13mins)

Listening back in 2024 his answer was like a play for play of exactly what actually occurred. 👏

Great questions from Marina and even greater answers from Paul.

Preliminary @AgFunder data point to 78% decline in #cultivatedmeat funding in 2023; investors blame ‘general risk aversion’ https://t.co/dDnQK8ma0b

@KaplanLab_Tufts @tuftscellag Why is this book so outrageously expensive? It's almost as if you don't want people to read it.
