DESCRIPTION:To ensure food security and reduce the environmental burden of
  livestock meat production\, we have developed a meat product from bovine 
 satellite cells and adipose tissue derived stem cells.\n\nFor cultured bee
 f to be successful it has to be scaled to an industrial scale\, with low p
 roduction cost\, delivering a credible copy of meat so that consumers acce
 pt the concept and the product. The challenges are many\, but with more th
 an 40 start-up companies world-wide\, substantial private funding and an e
 stimated 1000 scientists\, cultured meat is increasingly likely to become 
 real. The technical challenges and opportunities will be discussed as well
  as some surprising social implications.\n\nAll CSAR members are welcome.\
