Cultivated meat: Is EU falling behind in approving novel food and ensuring global food security?

"The latest projections suggest that cultivated meat could secure 10 % of the meat market by 2030 and up to 35 % by 2040."

@nicole2g @compost My two mini #JohnsonSu #Bioreactors of #Compost built and filled in August. The downpipes (removed after 24 hrs) create ventilating air holes in the compost pile.

After initially heating up between 55-65°C for several days, to kill weed seeds and pathogens, worms were added in September as soon as the pile temperature fell below 25°C.

They are regularly watered to maintain the moisture level. They will take 12 months to produce a fungal, biologically rich compost. 🤞

#introduction

I'm an #automation and #fermentation engineer based in the SF Bay Area.

I'm interested in microbes of all kinds, and especially how we can work with them to meet human needs.

In my day job, I work in #biomanufacturing, focusing on #robotics and #bioreactors. I figure that #microbiology can do amazing things, and #robots and #software are the best tools we have to talk to it.

I'm big on #OpenSource and #diybio. Yes, I would love to collaborate on a cool bio project with you!
