On Thursday, May 16, the Lectorenplatform Biobased Economy organises the webinar ‘Protein transitions”. The protein transition is the shift from animal proteins towards using alternative protein sources such as micro-organisms and cell cultures. The transition is needed for a more sustainable food system.
In a series of theme sessions, we highlight a current research theme of the lecturers’ platform to exchange knowledge and experience. Join this webinar where various speakers will share their insights. Topics that will be covered are the National Growth Fund Cellular Agriculture Netherlands (CAN), precision fermentation at University of Applied Sciences, and insights from Those Vegan Cowboys
