thank you @SenatorHassan @RepDavid for facilitating the conversation!

[Joint Economic Committee Republicans @JECRepublicans]

Chairman @RepDavid was in NH to hear from leading innovators developing the tools for improving our fiscal health. They discussed modernizing the regulatory system, relationships between federal funds & research & how FDA & other agencies certify new innovations.

@unculturedmeat @MissionBarns the salami was sooo good

[Irfan Tahir @unculturedmeat]

What a treat tasting @MissionBarns' cultivated meat products (salami and meatballs) in San Francisco earlier this month!

Congratulations to the entire team for getting the FDA no-questions letter!

List of priority research areas for the
#cultivatedmeat sector. This cites key challenges, bottlenecks, & solution spaces to reduce costs, assist in scaling, improve environmental impact, and generally build a greater foundation of knowledge to guide the trajectory of the field:

[Elliot Swartz @elliotswartz]

Korean startup Pensées launches food-grade culture media for the #cultivatedmeat industry.

Most leading companies already source the majority of their media ingredients at food-grade, but now solutions are being made available to research labs.

[Elliot Swartz @elliotswartz]

Congrats to our 2024 research grant program cohort, who will explore how starting materials ranging from crops, sidestreams, microbes, and micro/macro algae can support cellular nutrition for #cultivatedmeat
production.

Big news at Tufts University @tuftscellag, which received a $2.1M grant from the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative to build pilot-scale infrastructure for cellular agriculture, to be shared amongst researchers & companies

This is the way

@erinheejoon why did i read "eclipse" as "apocalypse"

[natalie r. rubio @natalierrubio]

@erinheejoon i'm literally the opposite.

[Liz Specht @LizSpecht]

ICYMI, this 1pg editorial from Nature Biotech is perhaps the most concise explainer on why cultivated meat is necessary, & why govts should be supporting it.

Surreal & wonderful to see this level of endorsement from such a reputable journal.
