Rebuilding the World’s fisheries while feeding the world

Cellular Aquaculture & Cultured Fish: The Alternative Protein Guide Part 2

A fish named Frank walks into a bar… wait fish can’t walk. Let me try again.

Two cells walk into a bar… oh, that doesn’t work either. Hold on.

I walk into a bar… shoot, that’s illegal, I’m 15.

Fine. No bar.

So, there’s me, Frank the fish, and Frank the fish’s cells in the form of sushi… Frank gets to enjoy being alive, and I get to enjoy Frank’s yummy muscle tissue at the same time. Now that’s what I call a fun time.

Quantum Super Position????

And this *impossibility* is possible with a FANTASTIC technology called tissue engineering (aka cultured fish). I’ll be giving a technical overview of cultured fish; a technology near and dear to my heart (literally though, I’m currently on a boat in Amsterdam, the ocean is 2 seconds away).

Here are some pre-requisites you should know:

• Cultured fish is grown from stem cells (pre-muscle tissue cells) in a controlled environment (a replication of the cell’s original animal’s interior).
• The controlled environment is made up of a protein & nutrient-rich soup (called a growth medium), it also has these biological…
