IAP Cell Ag Course Materials
How could we produce animal products without slaughtering animals?
These courses, designed by MIT students and alumni, introduce cellular agriculture: the manufacture of animal products from cell cultures. Students learn about the bioengineering, business, and food science of the field first in the brief crash course, before delving deeper in the 4 week intro course. In addition to lectures by the instructors and pioneering guest researchers, students of the 4 week intro course had the opportunity to delve into new research with their own research projects. The course culminated in presentations of novel student research.
We want to share these resources with anyone who wants to learn more about the cell ag field. Below you will find links to the class recordings as well as the class slides.
These courses were inspired by the Tufts Cellular Agriculture Course
