We are excited to announce that we will be running our first CellAg Challenge for National Science Week on 18th-19th August!
We will be bringing together undergraduate students from diverse academic backgrounds and introducing them to the field of cellular agriculture. Events will be held across online and in Melbourne, hosted by the University of Melbourne Future Food Hallmark Research Initiative.
Students will have the opportunity to explore new opportunities using cellular agriculture technologies through exploring a broad yet pressing question - how can we leverage cellular agriculture technology to revolutionise the food system and ensure its sustainability and ethics?
