SUMMARY:CBE Seminar: "Creating Real Steak Without the Cow: Using Insights from Wine and Biopharmaceutical Production to Commercialize Cultivated Meat"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nBetween a growing global population and increased consumption of meat from developing countries\, it is projected that meat production will have to increase by at least 60% by 2050 to meet demand. It is unlikely that expanded conventional animal agriculture alone will be able to meet this need. Therefore\, alternatives to conventional meat will be required at a very large scale. This is likely to include plant- and fungal-based meat alternatives\, as well as cultivated meat—the growth of animal stem cells in large-scale fermentors with subsequent differentiation into muscle\, fat\, and connective tissue cells. While close to 150 companies have formed in the last eight years internationally to commercialize this technology\, only three products are currently on the market\, a chicken nugget sold at two restaurants in Singapore\, and two chicken products recently approved for sale in the US\, but not yet widely available. Aside from federal regulatory hurdles\, difficult technical hurdles remain. These include development of cell lines well-suited for production\, inexpensive growth and differentiation media\, creation of structure into whole cuts like marbled steaks\, and scale-up to a commercial size potentially 10 times larger than anything previously attempted for cell-culture-based processes. After presenting the field and our consortium-based approach to addressing these hurdles\, this talk will focus on media optimization\, as over 80% of the cost of these products is projected to be from the nutrients used to grow the cells. For optimization\, using both spent media analysis and AI-based efficient experimental design techniques for complex optimization problems will be discussed. In addition\, initial efforts to facilitate the scale-up of processing will be discussed. While the field of cultivated meat is extremely new\, many of the problems facing large-scale commercialization of this fermentation process are not. Thus\, we can look to gain critical insight from decades of research in allied fields from wine to biopharmaceutical production.
