Lab-grown meat is fast becoming a real alternative to its farm-grown counterpart as billionaire entrepreneurs and industry heavyweights invest into start-ups from across the nascent field of “cellular agriculture”. Produced via stem cells derived from cows, pigs, fish, sheep, or other livestock, the emerging clean meat industry has the potential to transform the global food market and create a new trillion dollar industry in the process.

iPSC Applications in Cell Therapy, Drug Discovery, and Beyond
Since the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology 15 years ago, significant progress has been made in stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. New pathological mechanisms have been identified, new drugs identified by iPSC screens are in the pipeline, and the first clinical trials employing human iPSC-derived cell types have been initiated. [Read more…]
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) Industry Trends Dominating in 2024
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells or iPSCs) are laboratory-made pluripotent stem cells that are produced using non-controversial adult cells. They are derived from somatic cells through reprogramming and turning on the expression of specific pluripotency genes. This reprogramming can be achieved using different techniques with varying efficiencies. [Read more…]
CEO of Applied StemCell (ASC), Dr. Ruby Chen-Tsai, on ASC’s Massive Plans for Expansion
In this interview with Dr. Ruby Yanru Chen-Tsai, CEO of Applied StemCell (ASC), we explore ASC’s recent acquisition by QHP Capital, new hires being added by the company, upcoming product launches, and the company’s plans for massive expansion in 2024 and beyond.
We also explore the critical importance of developing readily available, off-the-shelf cell and gene therapies (CGT) at scale and for affordable price points. Enjoy! [Read more…]
The Cultured Meat Industry is a Nascent Industry that is Scaling Fast
The cultured meat industry is a young but revolutionary industry, with the potential to change agricultural practices and human meat consumption as we know it. Cultured meat refers to meat created using cell culture techniques within a laboratory or manufacturing facility. It is produced by growing stem cells collected from cattle, chicken, pigs, fish, lamb, and other livestock and then differentiating them into the various meat components, such as muscle and adipose tissue.
